The proposal sounds reasonable, taking also into account the discussion that has been going on in another thread.

2) We have the following milestone:

We still do not have a WG item for it but the following draft has been
around for some time. We would like to ask the WG if we should adopt the
following draft as the WG item for this milestone.

For me, this sounds good. As in the previous case, taking into account also the ongoing discussion on the related thread.

+1 and the concerns raised before IETF 75 are addressed in the -03 draft and some new that came up during IETF 75 will be addressed in -04



3) In order to be able to support the functionality provided by RELOAD,
HIP needs to support multi-hop routing. Instead of specifying it in the
HIP BONE draft, having a separate draft seem to make more sense given
that this functionality has a more general applicability than overlays.
We would like to ask the WG if we should spin off a new milestone from
our original milestone for overlays that covers multihop routing in HIP.

The following draft takes a stab at specifying multihop routing in HIP.
We would like to ask the WG if we should adopt it as a WG item for the
milestone above (assuming we decide to create the milestone).

This sounds ok.

4) We have the following milestone:

"Specify how to generate ORCHIDs from other node identifiers
including both cryptographic ones (leading to cryptographic
delegation) and non-cryptographic ones (e.g., identifiers defined by a
peer protocol)."

When we created that milestone, we expected to have a generic mechanism
to transform node IDs into ORCHIDs. However, at this point, it seems
that such transformation will be done in different ways depending on the
peer protocol used in a particular overlay. For example, the instance
specification for RELOAD draft defines such transformation for RELOAD
peer identifiers. The fact that nobody has submitted a draft for that
milestone seems to confirm the previous impression. We would like to ask
the WG if we should remove that milestone from our charter.

While there is no activity, it seems reasonable to remove it now.

Ok!
