The Chairs have received requests both on list and privately to please help 
facilitate finding a consensus as to how to proceed with these three documents.

It does seem that there is an impasse, which is unfortunate.  However, The 
Chairs remain ever hopeful that we will find a path forward.

What we propose is to get the principals together while we are all present in 
Vienna.  The Chairs will prepare an agenda and review concerns and preferences 
among the principals.  The objective is for the Chairs to be able to identify 
the rough consensus, if not full consensus, in the room.

The Chairs will provide a summary of the discussion to the list and assert the 
identified consensus for review by the working group.  we will be looking for 
objections from other working group members and, of course, ask that if you 
object you provide a technical explanation with new information to support it.

The goal is to finalize these documents, or to indicate explicit next steps to 
be completed that will finalize these documents.  They have been on our 
milestone list for years and worse they are about two years overdue.

The only meeting slot that we have available to do this is Wednesday morning, 
22 July, in the first time slot of the day 9am-11am local time.  Our AD has 
offered the IESG meeting room for this discussion and it is currently reserved 
for us.  Sorry folks, there is no remote participation available but we believe 
this will be okay as we will be reporting to the working group for the final 
decision.

Although anyone is welcome to join, the principals the Chairs would like to be 
present for this discussion are as follows.

Jim Gould
Tom Harrison
Paweł Kowalik
Mario Loffredo
Andy Newton
Jasdip Singh

We should appreciate if those on that list would indicate if they are available 
for this discussion.  As long as we have a quorum, as determined at the 
discretion of the Chairs and the AD, we will have the discussion and report to 
the mailing list.

If for some reason this meeting cannot happen, then the Chairs will organize an 
interim meeting in the weeks following the IETF.  Of course, we’d prefer not to 
do this so please do try to accommodate this meeting in your busy schedules.

Thanks to all!

Jorge, Antoin, and Jim
