[Idr] IDR charter update
Folks,
The IDR charter is overdue for an update. Here is our proposal, we've
tried to keep it short and sweet:
The Inter-Domain Routing Working Group is chartered to standardize
and promote the Border Gateway Protocol Version 4 (BGP-4) [RFC
4271] capable of supporting policy based routing for TCP/IP
internets.
The objective is to promote the use of BGP-4 to support IP version
4 and IP version 6. The working group will continue to work on
improving the robustness and scalability of BGP, and extending the
protocol as otherwise needed to support the growth and success of
the Internet.
We'll discuss this at Tuesday's meeting. Comments on the mailing list
are also welcome of course. I'm hoping to send this to the IESG for
approval ASAP.
Milestones and so on will also be updated, but the process for doing
that is lightweight.
