Hiya, So I was chatting with Richard Barnes about this yesterday and we figured that this activity might benefit from a shortish non-working group forming BoF in Dallas in March. Maybe a 60 or 90 minute session with the main goal being to scope out work that might be taken on by a WG that'd form say in the May-July time frame, all going well.
Our rationale was that the folks developing the current acme proposal [1] don't feel they're quite ready to propose a charter, being busy coding. But equally, we need to make sure that folks with other proposals, or with ideas for bigger changes to [1] get an opportunity to discuss those before we try craft a charter for a working group. Richard also tells me they will publish an I-D for [1] (as modified by [2] apparently) soon, and in any case before the cutoff. So, do folks think that's reasonable? If so, please let me know (offlist is fine if it's just a +1, please cc the list on anything substantive). If you'd like a presentation slot at such a session, then please send me an offlist mail with a topic and rough duration requested. And lastly, if you'd be willing and able to offer to co-chair such a BoF please let me know (also offlist, onlist offers to chair disqualify the sender:-) Comments in the next week please, as we need to request a session by Feb 6th if we want to go ahead. Thanks, S. PS: For people less familiar with IETF meetings, details about Dallas can be found at [3] and we'd not have a fixed time-slot for the session until February 27, so planning to be there for the full week (March 22-27) is the ideal. Or booking travel a bit later otherwise.
