3. Upcoming conference call days & times

Hannes Tschofenig agreed to invite the Security Area Directors to the 3 April 2013 tech chat to discuss certificate transparency.

4. draft-iab-dns-applications-07

The IAB approved draft-iab-dns-applications for publication as an Informational RFC. The Chair will send a Request to Publish notice to the RFC Editor.

5. IEEE 802/IETF Relationship Document

Spencer Dawkins gave an update on the current status of draft-iab-rfc4441rev. There is an open question about how much of the document should contain descriptive text rather than pointers to existing BCPs.

Bernard Aboba noted that after RFC 4441 was originally published, there was no real way to tell that the IEEE 802 had agreed to the content of the document, as it was not balloted in the IEEE 802 and the only author listed was from the IAB. Spencer Dawkins replied that 4441rev will have authors from both the IAB and the IEEE 802 Executive Committee. Dave Thaler suggested inviting the IEEE 802 to put a one-paragraph Note at the front of the IAB stream document (similar to an IESG Note in an Independent Submission stream document) explaining their participation in the document’s creation.

The document will be discussed further at the meeting with the 802 Executive Committee Leadership on 16 March 2013.

6. ISOC Relationship

The board briefly discussed the relationship between the IAB, the IETF and ISOC. It was agreed that each organization needs to understand the scope and mission of the others’ and that communication is vital. This topic will potentially be added to the agenda for the 2013 IAB Retreat.
