    minutes):

    o Structure of Management Information for Version 2 of the Simple
    Network Management Protocol (SNMPv2)
    <draft-ietf-snmpv2-smi-ds-04.txt> for the status of Draft
    Standard. This document is an update to RFC1442, currently a
    Proposed Standard.

    o Textual Conventions for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management
    Protocol (SNMPv2) <draft-ietf-snmpv2-tc-ds-06.txt> for the status of
    Draft Standard. This document is an update to RFC1443, currently a
    Proposed Standard.

    o Conformance Statements for Version 2 of the Simple Network
    Management Protocol (SNMPv2) <draft-ietf-snmpv2-conf-ds-05.txt> for
    the status of Draft Standard. This document is an update to RFC1444,
    currently a Proposed Standard.

    o Protocol Operations for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management
    Protocol (SNMPv2) <draft-ietf-snmpv2-proto-ds-05.txt> for the
    status of Draft Standard. This document is an update to RFC1448,
    currently a Proposed Standard.

    o Transport Mappings for Version 2 of the Simple Network Management
    Protocol (SNMPv2) <draft-ietf-snmpv2-tm-ds-04.txt> for the status of

    Proposed Standard.

    the status of Draft Standard. This document is an update to RFC1450,
    currently a Proposed Standard.

    the status of Draft Standard. This document is an update to RFC1452,
    currently a Proposed Standard.

    The announcement will be sent when all the documents have been
    reissued as Internet-Drafts.

    11. The IESG approved the reclassification of the following to Historic:

    o RFC1445: Administrative Model for version 2 of the Simple Network
    Management Protocol (SNMPv2)

    o RFC1446: Security Protocols for version 2 of the Simple Network
    Management Protocol (SNMPv2)

    o RFC1447: Party MIB for version 2 of the Simple Network Management
    Protocol (SNMPv2)

    The announcement will not be sent until the draft SNMPv2 Protocol
    action is sent.

    12. The IESG approved the revised version "Transition Mechanisms for
    IPv6 Hosts and Routers" <draft-ietf-ngtrans-trans-mech-01.txt> as a
    Proposed Standard. Announcement will not be sent until the revision
    is available as an Internet-Draft.

    13. The IESG discussed the need for an official Repository of
    appendices to Standards documents published as RFCs. The repository
    would contain templates, skeleton, sections of code, and other
    items that can not be published as part of an RFC. It was then
    suggested that a similar/separate subdirectory be created to
    contain IPR related items

    Steve was tasked to send a note to the RFC Editor asking if they
    would establish a subdirectory off the rfc tree to hold these
    items.

    14. The IESG discussed and agreed that the IETF meeting fee for LA
    should be raised to $250. Once the final figures for the Dallas
    meeting are available, the meeting fee level should be revisisted
    and compared with the projected values for the year.

    Paul to send Steve a copy of the overheads used in the plenary
    presentation.

    15. Several IESG members reported on public statements that had been
    made by the Web consortium and others WRT payment protocol
    development. Basically, the consortium believes that the IETF is
    next logical step in the development and enhancement of these
    protocols, and that they will be preparing Internet-Drafts to
    document their work when it is ready, and will present it to the
    IETF for further work. It was noted that the IETF will not do
    anything until the Consortium's efforts are made available as
    I-Ds.

    16. There seems to be some confusion as to the ability of ITU to
    reference IETF documents (RFCs) in their own standards documents.
    One objection to this practice was raised by the U.S. State
    Department, noting that the IETF retains no recognized status as an
    international standards setting body.
