     *   Yokohama agenda published
        *   6tisch meeting on Thursday afternoon
     *   Announcing 2nd 6tisch plugtest in 2-4 Feb 2016, Paris

*        [07.08] Sublayer draft

     *   Xavi Vilajosana: Just republished. The sublayer offers mechanism to 
allocate nodes on a distributed way but the policy to do that is kept sepaate.
        *   New terms defined, incliding Objective Function with an identifier 
to enable multiple.
        *   6top protocol is a messaging protocol to allocate cells between 
peers.
        *   simple protocols
        *   Presenting the protocol stack. request proposes a number of cells 
and response provides the ones selected.
        *   new draft presents messages and packet formats in a fashion similar 
to 15.4 information elements
        *   interesting is that each message has an op code indicating command 
and response-code
        *   list of cells are described by channel offset / slot offset
        *   OTF is one possible Objective function. Codes would be allocated by 
IANA
     *   Pascal Thubert: is the intelligence only on the requester?
     *   Thomas Watteyne: there is a minimum intelligence on the receiver since 
it manages at least collisions.
     *   Pat Kinney: On unmanaged. I undertsand that they can be used without 
being assigned. You probably want a lot less than 128 unmanaged. Maybe 2 or 3 
for experimentations.
     *   Thomas Watteyne: agree let us have an action item
     *   Zhuo Chen: asking clarification on the 2 dslot frames
     *   Xavi Vilajosana: We have 2 slot frames. The first is for minimal. The 
second is managed by 6top and that is where slots installed by 6top will be. 
There may be other slotframes.
     *   Thomas Watteyne: This is an example that guarantees that we have 
bandwidth to boot with minimal.
        *   Simple for interop. But just an example that is recommended. The OF 
would define this.
     *   Nicola: is there a requirement of the slotframe relative sizes
     *   Thomas Watteyne: You can always figure when slotframe 0 is talking so 
no
     *   Nicola: Why term OF? anything ot optimize
     *   Thomas Watteyne: No, name mimics RPL, maybe not the right thing
     *   Nicola: Why 2 bytes for slot offset?
     *   Thomas Watteyne: Comes from 4e to enable other PHYs
     *   Pat Kinney: agreed with Thomas. The standards guarantees that lowest 
slot frame has prority
     *   Thomas Watteyne: Yes, collision will cause slotframe 1 to loose an 
opportunity to send to it looks bad
        *   draft says we want a group ID and a payload. Asking Pat if we can 
get an IE, a subIE or something assigner to us or IETF. Hiw can we get that?
     *   Pat Kinney: understands and agrees. This requires a letter from IANA 
to Bob Heile.
        *   I see enormous advantage for a group ID to be assigned. We ned to 
start communicating on this one
     *   Thomas Watteyne: will talk between chairs and follow up with IANA
     *   Xavi Vilajosana: Suggest to associate an OF number to the OTF draft
     *   Diego: we'll meet and will discuss renaming. I agree
     *   Randy Turner: the term is used a lot. Make sure it is the correct 
term. People might have assumptions
     *   Pascal Thubert: also disagree with the 6 that has a very wide scope. 
Should narrow to 6TiSCH
     *   Thomas: Aggressive deadlines for interop in February; We need to 
stabilize 6top and OTF by end 2015 to enable coding the stuff.

*        [07.08] Security draft

     *   Michael not joined yet

*        [07.42] Rechartering

     *   Pascal summarize
     *   removed the "e" in 802.15.4e

o   added 3 new work items:

        *   OTF
        *   secure bootstrap
        *   define what a track is and DETNET requirements

o   we don't want to distract the work on OTF, but for the people who don't 
work on OTF.

        *   Pascal thanks Anand for review of 6tisch-4detnet

o   Idea is to push the new charter rapidly

     *   WG chairs and AD will work on new charter
     *   charter is contract with IESG, milestone and non milestone documents.

o   Interop guidelines and useful sustaining documents.

o   Question in the Charter. "For IP traffic". Pascal votes to maintain IP 
traffic in opposition to remove IP.

o   It is safe to keep the OTF activity close to the IP routing.

     *   PAT: suggests to add a footnote. Non-ip traffic is not precluded from 
that effort in the future. (aiming to support other types of traffic)
     *   Pascal: we want to say that for the time being we work on IP traffic. 
This does not imply that we will not work on other types of traffic in the 
future.
     *   PAT: Agrees, he is worried about people thinking that the affirmation 
restricts other types of traffic.
     *   ChongGang: Limited to the IP traffic? I think the work can be applied 
to both IP and non-ip traffic.
     *   Also clarify that the operation we target is one-hop, that is hop by 
hop negotiation.
     *   Maria Rita: suggests to remove the paragraph at the end but let a 
little text indicating that we will participate/support interop events. Remove 
some details as it is too long.
     *   Pascal: if we charter to do the security work do we we have a critical 
masss in the security working team to move forward on that?
     *   Rene: not immediately but in 3month time or so he can try to rechart 
the sub group.
     *   Michael RIchardson: are we going to have a phone conference the 23rd 
of October. If so I can join it and discuss about the new activity in the join 
process.
     *   Pascal: suggest to close the security ML and move discussion at the ML.
     *   Michael agrees
     *   Malisa: the WG is divided in different directions. It is not that the 
group is not finding the right work force.
     *   Michael: Ask Malisa to send an email to the ML indicating the 3 
security approaches he sees.
     *   Malisa agrees.

*        [07.52] AOB

Chonggang: track requirement, detnet requirements. Can you give some more 
advice on how to move forward? He send an email about that. Can we move 
forward. Action: pascal to review the draft and push to move this forward. 
Malisa: quite some discussions between security, not problem of workforce, but 
agree on direction Michael: please send to ML

  *   [08.00] Meeting ends
