Agenda IETF107: nfsv4

Agenda for nfsv4wg Sessions
Draft (as of 3/9/2020)

This agenda treats both of our Thursday sessions as essentially a single
entity, given that they are adjoining and in the same room, with only a short
refreshment break in the middle of our three and a half hours. We have retained
much of the originally announced structure, with an early focus on the working
group’s current agenda (including stuff related to rfc5661bis) and a later
section emphasizing on future work.   Given the clarification about Lars’
conflicts, the adjustments to accommodate lars’s demo are no longer necessary
This agenda is preliminary since it will not be finalized until several weeks
from now.  However, it is unlikely that there will be changes in the set of
talks to be given or large changes to the time allocated to each topic.  Given
that we no longer have four hours to work with, it is unlikely that we will
able to add any new substantial talks not discussed yet.  Nevertheless, there
is some room for changes before this is published generally: * The ordering of
items is open to change and suggestions for appropriate re-orderings will be
welcomed. * In some case, the talk description has not been provided by the
speaker and what appear is my best guess at an eventual talk description.  In
such cases, the description is shown with a light blue background.   I would
appreciate it if speakers could provide me with better descriptions soon.  
Note that the submission deadline for this is 3/11. Note that, with regard to
the milestone (MS) column: * WBD means that we expect this item to get a
milestone soon after the meeting and expect the working group discussion to
contribute to the target date to be chosen. * TBD means that we not have a
milestone for this item and may decide to create one, based in part, on the
results of the working group discussion.
