2. Liaison Oversight Program: IEEE-SA/IETF Cooperation
Dan reported that he attended a meeting with attendees from ISOC, IETF and IEEE-SA. As the liaison relationship with IEEE-SA is still very new, Dan is still learning about the organization. Both sides are committed to finding ways to work cooperatively together.
3. ITU-T Coordination Program: Update on RFC 3356bis
Eliot reported that thus far there has been no response from the ITU-T on the proposed updates to RFC 3356. Eliot sent proposed text for updating Section 3.2.1 (IETF Recognition at ITU-T) to the board, and asked for approval by the end of the week.
4. IP Evolution Initiative
Hannes reported that the IP Evolution Initiative met on Sunday. Current work items include:
- draft-iab-smart-object-workshop: currently in the RFC Editor Queue.
- draft-iab-anycast-arch-implications: work in progress.
- Proposed draft-iab-smart-object-statement
- Proposed firewalls document
- Proposed energy considerations document
Since items 1-3 are likely to be completed in the short term, and items 4 and 5 have implications beyond the IP Evolution Initiative, Dave Thaler questioned whether the IP Evolution Initiative should continue after 1-3 are complete, or whether it should be shut down, with items 4 and 5 handled within other Programs and Initiatives. The board agreed to discuss the future of the IP Evolution Initiative at the upcoming IAB Retreat.
5. DNS Initiative: draft-iab-dns-applications
Jon reported that draft-iab-dns-applications has changed significantly from the previous versions, and asked the board to review the most current revision.
6. HTTP/Web Evolution Initiative
Hannes reported that the HTTP/Web Evolution Initiative has been considering proposed work on Web Security, including a potential security workshop with the W3C.
