    6. The IESG tentatively approved publication of IP Network Address
    Translator (NAT) Terminology and Considerations
    <draft-ietf-nat-terminology-02.txt> as an Informational RFC. Some
    wanted more time to review and possibly request textual changes.
    This was met with some resistance, but the IESG did instruct Steve
    to wait for comments until Monday, May 10 with the understanding
    that the comments that will be accepted must propose specific text
    and that the proposed text be non-destructive to the intentions of
    the NAT Working Group that produced the document.

    If no such comments are received, Steve can send the announcement.
    If text is proposed that meets the criteria, Vern will consolodate
    and convey to the document authors.

    7. The IESG approved publication of Internet Printing Protocol/1.0:
    Implementer's Guide <draft-ietf-ipp-implementers-guide-01.txt> as an

    (PPTP) <draft-ietf-pppext-pptp-10.txt> as an Informational RFC.

    to send announcement.

    inetOrgPerson LDAP Object Class
    <draft-smith-ldap-inetorgperson-03.txt>. Steve to request extension
    from the RFC Editor.

    13. The IESG discussed the concept of Working Groups producing documents
    in tandem with other standards organization groups, specifically the
    XMLDSIG [Proposed] Working Group working with the W3C, and the
    MEGACO Working Group with ITU's Study Group 16. While there were
    concerns and potential issues raised on the mechanics of how these
    groups will co-function, the IESG consensus was to move forward on
    both efforts, but with eyes WIDE open.
