    The IESG also approved publication of the following two documents
    as Informational RFCs:

    IMAP4 COMPATIBILITY WITH IMAP2BIS
    <draft-crispin-imap-compat-00.txt>

    o Traffic Flow Measurement: Meter MIB
    <draft-ietf-rtfm-acct-meter-mib-01.txt>

    15. The IESG approved publication of UTF-8, a transformation format of
    Unicode and ISO 10646 <draft-yergeau-utf8-01.txt> as an
    Informational RFC. Steve to send announcement.

    16. The IESG approved publication of Telnet CHARSET option

    (ftpext) WG in the Application Area. Charter is to be modified to
    include text addressing the problems of restarts and the use of IP
    addresses. When the ADs provide the text, Steve will review to
    ensure the required parts are included. If so, the WG will begin.

    20. The IESG deferred action on the set of security related
    Internet-Drafts submitted for publication as Experimental RFCs. The
    consensus of the IESG was to coordinate actions on all other
    security-related documents.

    21. The IESG will meet in the Santa Barbara on October 21-22.

    22. Steve reported that the timeline for the San Jose part deux IETF
    meeting have been set. Will send critical dates to WG Chairs and
    the IESG. Steve reminded the IESG that a scheduling announcement
    will be sent to the IESG a week before being sent to the WG Chairs.
    This will (HOPEFULLY :-) assist in the development of Area tracks.
