Al's message and my reply are attached. We have benefited from Al's help in starting this work, and I'm deeply grateful for his participation and stimulation. I have asked Paul Lambert to consider whether he wants to chair the WG himself or have some help. I suspect help is desired, and anyone who feels the urge should contact Paul and/or me. This WG is central to the overall strategy of the Security Area and hence to security improvements in the Internet. It's my feeling this WG is at a critical juncture. I've asked Paul to re-examine the charter and recalibrate the schedule. I'd like to see this happen within the next few weeks. We'll be meeting in Seattle at the end of March. I'm expecting noteworthy progress by then. Thanks, Steve =========================================================================== Date: Mon, 31 Jan 1994 18:38:40 -0800 From: Alton Hoover To: crocker@tis.com Subject: IPSEC Steve: After serious review I must resign as co-chair of the IPSEC working group. Recent personnel changes at ANS have changed my responsibilities such that I am not be able to devote the proper amount of time, attention and resources to direct the IPSEC efforts. It is more appropriate for one of the other working group members who has the available time to volunteer and pick-up the leadership of IPSEC. I and ANS will continue to participate as we are strong believers in the IETF process and the direction of IPSEC within the SAAG. We will also be pleased to continue to provide the archive and mailing list services for IPSEC as part of our support for the effort. Thanks to everyone for their support and continuing participation in driving the IP security standards efforts of IPSEC. Sincerely, Al Hoover =========================================================================== To: Alton Hoover Cc: crocker@tis.com Subject: Re: IPSEC In-Reply-To: Your message of "Mon, 31 Jan 94 18:38:40 PST." <199402010238.AA02188@hoovermac.ans.net> Date: Mon, 31 Jan 94 17:53:06 +0000 From: Stephen D Crocker Al, Thanks very much for your excellent service on the IPSEC WG. This is a key activity, and your efforts to help get it started are both valuable and appreciated. ANS is a highly visible contributor in the Internet environment. We all appreciate the strong corporate commitment ANS has made to the standards process, and we definitely hope that you and your team will remain involved. I will pass along your message to Paul Lambert and work with him to make the appropriate adjustments. Thanks again. I look forward to future interactions whenever the opportunity arises.
