    tentatively approved publication of Requirements for Traffic
    Engineering Over MPLS <draft-ietf-mpls-traffic-eng-01.txt> as an
    Informational RFC. Once Rob conveys the outcome of the conversation
    (either a go-ahead or text for an Note to RFC Editor)to Steve, he
    will send announcemment.

    11. As the MPLS WG review produced no issues, the IESG had no problem
    with the publication of Performance Issues in VC-Merge Capable ATM
    LSRs <draft-widjaja-mpls-vc-merge-01.txt> as an Informational RFC.
    Steve to notify RFC Editor.

    as an IESG Note:

    This document is being published for the information of the
    community. It describes a protocol that is currently being
    deployed in a number of products. Implementers should keep aware
    of developments in the IETF Megaco Working Group and ITU-T SG16
    who are currently working on a potential successor to this
    protocol.

    Steve to notify RFC Editor.

    15. The IESG consensus was that Password-Based Cryptography
    Specification PKCS #5 v2.0 <draft-kaliski-pkcs5-v2-01.txt> should
    not be published as an Informational RFC at this time. Marcus to
    contact author with comments; Steve to notify RFC Editor.

    16. The IESG agreed that Comparison of the Addressing Schemes of the
    Internet and OSI <draft-qkim-addr-comp-01.txt> should NOT be

    publish, the IESG requests the opportunity to prepate an IESG note
    Steve to notify RFC Editor.

    19. The IESG discussed the issues of non-standard boilerplate text
    and/or the inclusion of contradictory statements in Internet-Drafts.
    The consensus of the IESG was that a clear message needed to be sent
    by Fred on behalf of the IESG outlining that such documents were
    subject to immediate expirations.

    Steve to prepare text (extracted from last week's collection) and
    send to the IESG for final wordsmithing while waiting in
    anticipation for Fred to return from the wilds of California.

    20. Steve was volunteered to act as the initial PSO Secretary. Steve
    accepted, but noted that this might prevent him from becoming a
    member of the ASO.

    21. The IESG tentatively approved creating the Zero Configuration
    Networking (zeroconf) Working Group in the Internet Area. Thomas to
    incorporate text changes to address concerns raised during the
    telechat and send them to Steve. Steve is to send a WG Review
    message to the IETF-Announce and new-work lists. After one week, the

    for URLs for Telephone Calls <draft-antti-telephony-url), approved
    on July 1, should not be sent. An updated document is expected, and
    there is a good likelihood that this document will be last called by
    a WG for standards track status.
