Hi.  I'd like to give my take on the core documents and where I think we
are in the hopes of soliciting feedback.

Architecture:
We have an initial version out. We've received a lot of feedback from
Jim and some from Alexey that we need to integrate.
We need to write a security considerations section and we need to write
sections on proxy behavior.

In my opinion, it's more important to focus on the technical specs at
this point than the architecture document. We definitely should have
some update by IETF 82 to make forward prograss, but I don't think it is
critical that it be complete. In effect I'm arguing that the initial
order of our milestones is wrong and that we want to conclude core specs
before architecture.

* gss-eap: I think this is complete enough that we can get significant
  review. There are some open ends:

* Actually including an OID from the OID registry

* Including the error codes that you might want to return

* Including a sample token

* Some figures might be nice. If people write figures I'll include
  them:-)

But I believe the protocol is well specified enough to have an informed
discussion.

* aaa-saml.

we've had several discussions of this. We need to specify more semantics
to address issues Jim and I have raised..
We have a description of the attribute.
We need to turn that into descriptions of the semantics of the
attribute.  In effect it needs to be more of a SAML binding.
The fact that this is not written down is hurting us and this doc should
be a real priority.

* gss-eap-naming:
This document needs and will get a major update.
It needs to reflect changes in naming extensions. When this document was
written it was as much an argument that naming extensions was broken as
it was a description of how to do things in GSS-EAP.
Never the less we've gotten significant feedback from Jim and I think
we'll be in very good shape for review once this feedback is integrated
into the document.
