Scribe: Paul Aitken, on Etherpad at http://tools.ietf.org/wg/eman/minutes

WG Status
---------
- EMAN Requirements approved, in RFC Editor queue since 2 May 13

Energy Management Framework -08
-------------------------------
Presented by John Parello
- Many changes in this version; sections re-ordered,
  IANA Considerations added, including a Registry for Power States.
  Information model represented (at this stage) in pseudo-code,
  can easily generate other forms of it, e.g. UML.
- How should information model be presented in the draft?
  Strong support for pseudo-code, support also for UML.  It seems
  the draft should include both.
- Draft complexity: conflict here between making the framework simpler
  by removing more relationships, and perhaps by moving the information
  model from it to a new, separate draft.
= Discussion will continue on the list, please read the draft and
  comment; provide new text to improve it.
  We plan to run its first WG Last Call starting about mid-August,
  and may need a second WG Last Call after further revisions.

Energy-aware- MIB -09
Power and Energy Monitoring MIB -06
---------------------
Presented by John Parello.
- Only a few changes.
= Waiting for Framework to become stable, will need to check
  that all the requirements are met

Battery MIB -09
---------------
Presented by Juergen Quittek.
- Needs one more revision, needs to identify slot and battery ID
  for replaceable batteries.
= Waiting on Framework

Applicability Statement -03
---------------------------
Presented by Nevil Brownlee
- Now fairly stable
= Ready for WGLC once Framework is done

Other Presentations
-------------------
At this point we ran out of time (only one hour), so no further
drafts were discussed.  However, the slides for them are on the
Meeting Materials page.

Next Steps:
-----------
- WG Last Call on Framework mid-August, goal is to submit it
  before next IETF meeting.
- MIBs to follow once Framework is submitted, then Applicability
  Statement.

The meeting finished at 1000.
