CURRENT MEETING REPORT

Reported by Erik Huizer

Minutes of the Process for Organization of Internet Standards 95 Working Group (POISED95)

1. Nomcom

Since no comments have been received on the draft-ietf-poised95-nomcom-03.txt except for the single issue on the prohibition on resigning members being reappointed, discussion will be limited to this single issue. Expected result: rewording for this issue, and decision to forward document (with this change) to IESG, IAB, and ISOC trustees.

2. Standards process

Since the release of draft-ietf-poised95-std-proc-3-04.txt there have been a couple of comments on specific issues, mostly due to the practice of the current appeal that the IAB is handling.

Most issues seem, except for BCP, uncontroversial.

Bill Simpson has a suggestion for a change in the document that relates to the BCP discussion. Bill will get an opportunity to present this.

Expected results:

- finishing touch on issues raised on the list - discussion on BCP, including Bill's proposal.

Conclusion should be either:

1. there is a concensus on a relatively simple change to the draft; or,

2. there is no consensus, (or rough consensus on a complex change to the draft). In this case the change will be deferred to Poised96. The draft will then go ahead without change. It is suggested that we ask the IAB to come up with suggestions for additions by the Friday morning of the IETF week. If they are simple, they will be worked into the draft. If not, they will be deferred to Poised96.

Issues that have not been brought forward on the list and issues on which we already reached closure will not be discussed.

3. Organizations in IETF

We will discuss the draft-ietf-poised95-ietf-orgs-00.txt. Expected result: clear directions on improvements to the document (new version within two weeks after LA, with WG last call).

4. Where do we go from here

My proposal:

Get out the last version of stds and orgs documents before March 21 (WG last call (14 days). Hopefully all three documentss (including Nomcom) will go to IESG, IAB, and ISOC trustees.

No serious comments were recieved on draft-ietf-poised95-isoc-01.txt. It was concluded that this draft has served its purpose. The draft will not be discussed, nor updated, nor published as a RFC.

5. Where will we go after that?

A discussion (BOF if you like) on issues for POISED96. Expected result: Charter for Poised96.
