Suresh provided the document status in the working group. Two of the
deliverables have been published as RFCs and two other deliverables have
drafts that have completed WGLC.
He mentioned that the IETF has made great progress on online meetings
since the WG was chartered and some of the deliverables do not have any
candidate work items. He proposed dropping these deliverables and
closing the working group. e.g. Mallory mentioned that the cadence item
was not relevant because all three meetings in the year have a strong
virtual component and participation that thinking of whether a virtual
interim is required is redundant.
Lars Eggert (responsible AD) agreed with the proposal to progress the
drafts and close the WG.
Martin Duke wondered about how to handle Mark Nottingham's draft about
online meetings
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-nottingham-scheduling-online-meetings-01)
Lars mentioned that he was willing to consider any other items in this
problem space for publication as an AD sponsored item. Suresh and
Mallory would check with Mark to see if we was interested in taking this
path.
Martin Duke had some thoughts about whether this should stay an
Informational record of what has been done or should try to reword
things to be more in the form of recommendations (in other words a BCP)
Suresh mentioned that this would need a recharter and will take some
IESG cycles and delay progressing the draft. Lars also agreed that
keeping it as Informational and progressing it was the best way forward.
Suresh mentioned that this would be the last meeting for the WG and
signed off with a classic line from Douglas Adams "So long and thanks
for all the fish". He mentioned that the mailing list would remain open
for further discussions even after the WG was closed.
