[bmwg] BMWG Status from Al's POV
Folks,
We have about a month till the next meeting.
Below I've reproduced the Action Items from our
IETF-69 session and my view of progress.
If your name doesn't appear below, read a draft anyway,
and everyone can root for Kevin's BoSox.
They're the only org. I know of that seems to be ahead of schedule
(they were supposed to wait 86 years before winning another pennant).

===========================================================================
Action Items
Jay Karthik has volunteered to restart the BGP convergence methodology,
and Rajiv Papneja also volunteered to help out.
Attempts to contact the existing authors have gone unanswered, AFAIK.
David Ward will identify a RIP expert to consult on adding RIP to
the IGP Dataplane drafts, and a small group of volunteers to help
expand the scope
and resolve the DISCUSS comments.
A design team was formed in August. There have been revisions to the drafts,
and there are more comments to deal with now.
The IPv6 Author team will look into whether a reference to the Hash and
Stuffing RFC 4814 is appropriate in their memo. They will also pursue the
frame size issue on the list. WGLC ends on August 10.
The third WGLC call closed with 2 minor comments. Version-04 addresses them.
I have waited in case any late comments arrived (they didn't),
so I am declaring consensus and preparing the publication request.
All authors to check that their drafts print-out properly, with no line
wraps. Margins to body text should be 3 spaces, no more.
Please do this.
Regarding the IPsec drafts, folks should read and comment on the
need for an IKE flood scenario and whether the back-to-back test
should be included. Scott Poretsky, Rajiv Papneja, Muninder Sambi,
Sanjay Hooda, and Benno Overinder all volunteered to review the
IPsec drafts. Jerry Perser also volunteered to help Merike finish
the documents.
No action here, AFAIK.
There's lots of work being proposed, so the WG needs to read these drafts too
and comment on what is most relevant to do next.
The ball's in your court, BMWG.
