2. Setting up a new IETF liaison to ISO/TC 154

Francesca Palombini, Bron Gondwana, and Mark McFadden joined the IAB to discuss setting up a new liaison relationship between the IETF and ISO/TC 154.

The SEDATE WG charter says that “The working group will coordinate with ECMA International TC39 and ISO/TC 154 to ensure that this work remains a strict extension of ISO 8601 and its various parts rather than becoming a conflicting standard.”

Mirja Kühlewind noted that generally, direct collaboration is preferred over formal liaisons.

Bron Gondwana replied that since ISO is a membership forum, there are concerns about IETF reviewers being able to get access to the ISO specifications.

Francesca Palombini noted that liaison statements had previously been exchanged between ISO/TC 154 and the IETF over ISO 14533 and work in the LAMPS WG, so coordination between the IETF and ISO/TC 154 seems to be an ongoing concern. She added that the IETF could have benefited from a liaison with ISO/TC 154 when it was working on RFC 3339.

Jiankang Yao said that even if IETF reviewers are given access to ISO documents, a formal liaison relationship will still be needed in order for the IETF to actively participate in the discussions at ISO/TC 154.

The IAB agreed to pursue a liaison relationship with ISO/TC 154. Mirja Kühlewind and the Liaison Coordinators will begin the process to set up a formal liaison relationship with ISO/TC 154.

3. Workshop on Analyzing IETF Data (AID)

The IAB approved the call for papers for the Workshop on Analyzing IETF Data (AID).
