Description of Working Group:

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP, RFC 1661) is a mature protocol with a
large number of subprotocols, encapsulations and other extensions. The
group will actively advance PPP's most useful extensions to full
standard, while defending against further enhancements of questionable
value.

Goals and Milestones:

Done  Advance SDL draft to Experimental
Done  Add VLAN support to BCP (RFC 1638) and recycle at Proposed Standard
