[top post only]

Two work items that I believe GROW should add to their
Goals & Milestones:

o I-D reviewing implications of routing design on scalability
of intra-domain routing (e.g., impact of hierarchy on paths
and implications on routing system resources, impact of
path vectors, impact on optimizations like update packing,
etc..)

o I-D discussing implications of IPv4 & IPv6 bogon and
special use addresses.  Something like what the v6ops folks
tried to capture in the v6ops routing guidelines ID, though
it applies equally to IPv4 and needs this WGs full
consideration.

Neither of the above items are worded as they likely need
to be, but the general idea is captured there, i believe.

*AND there are 4 operators I know of that have already
agreed to work on these items.

It is clear that the proposal to close the working group has generated
quite a bit of discussion.

Despite the fact that this working group has completed it's
milestones, it is pretty clear to me that there is quite some interest
in keeping this working group alive in one way or the other.

However, interest is not enough to keep a working group. We need to
have a clear understanding what we need to work on, and in addition,
we need commitments to actually complete that work.

So far, we have seen lots of interest but little in terms of concrete and
well defined work items, and even more importantly, commitments from
people to work on these workitems.

In order to give you a chance to actually make a case for items that
need to be worked on, including commitments of individuals to work on
them, I have decided, in consultation with my successor and Dan to
postpone a decision on the future of this working group to
Monday April the 2nd.
