8. Tools Team Report -- 14 January 2020

1. Datatracker Projects
  - The plan has seen very few updates in the last few months:
    -- https://trac.tools.ietf.org/tools/ietfdb/browser/trunk/PLAN
  - A contract for Meeting Application Improvements was awarded to
    IOLA.  The work related to the database models is complete and
    deployed; the works related to the user interface is expected to
    complete in the next few weeks.
  - A contract for the first part of the automated meeting schedule
    generation was awarded to DashCare, and work is underway.  This
    is the first part of a bigger project; this part will provide
    better models for conflicts that have previously been captured
    as lore or text comments.
  - A contract for IRSG balloting was awarded to AKAYLA.  Work was
    finished in December 2019, and it has been deployed.
  - A contract for the Datatracker Review Tool was awarded to
    DashCare.  Work was finished in December 2019, and it has been
    deployed.
  - Contracts for Tools Maintenance and Minor Tools Enhancements were
    awarded to Elf Tools and Painless Security, respectively.  These
    contracts provide coverage for all of 2020.

2. Community & Other Projects
  - A prototyping server for the IETF web site now includes Matomo,
    and it has been integrated with our Wagtail website.  It is ready
    for production, and it is collecting the desired analytics.  The
    updated privacy policy has been announced to the community, so the
    analytics capability will be deployed soon.

3. RFC Services Projects
  - The server used by the RFC Production Center needs to be upgraded
    to Python 3.6 to resolve a problem with one of the libraries used to
    produce the PDF files.  This will be quickly resolved by the
    Secretariat.
  - The Tools Team developed a Statement of Work for a security review
    of the tools used by the RFC Production Center, and the IETF LLC
    used it as part of an RFP.  The RFP did not result in an award.
    The IETF LLC Executive Director will re-issue the RFP later this
    month or early February.  Obviously, this means that the work will
    take place later than originally planned.

4. Server Infrastructure
  - We plan to transition all IETF services to a new virtual server
    group in late January 2020, which will move us to the latest
    operating system release, Python, and other software.
  - The custom DMARC-handling software was deployed for all mail lists
    in June 2018.  This software seems to be a better fit for the IETF
    than OpenARC.  This software does not support the Internet-Draft
    and leadership email aliases.  Once the virtual server upgrade is
    complete, we will investigate how to handle the email aliases.

5. YANG Catalog
  - Current focus it to better support the posting of YANG modules by
    other SDOs.
  - A sandbox of the YANGcatalog.org is running in a container.  We
    expect deployment of the containerized version later this year.
  - A contract for YANG Catalog  Maintenance was awarded to
    PANTHEON.tech.  The contract provide coverage for all of 2020.
