2. administrivia

NomCom liaison: Steve Bellovin volunteered; his offer to serve was accepted with universal acclaim.

3. IRTF news

4. IESG liaison report

5. new IANA news

Dialog ongoing with NSI. Goal is to be able to say that old IANA and Network Solutions both support the proposal.

Now working on composition of initial board.

Looking for additional corporate endorsements.

6. AAA BOF

Mailing list set up. Lots of activity.

One issue that is appearing is need for “reliable UDP” to allow for out-of-order delivery of large “control” messages. One possibility is MDTP (current Internet Draft); also could revisit TTCP work of end-to-end research group.
