Hi all,

Given Lixia's departure, I'm sure that folks have some questions about how we 
will proceed.  As I see them, our priorities, in order, are:

1) Finish off our existing work.  We've put the recommendation up for IRSG 
review.  We have our design goals and several documents from a number of 
proposals that we'd like to move forward.

2) Determine next topics.  Our current charter is pretty specific, and it will 
need updating to reflect the next topic (or set of topics) that the RG is going 
to consider. Please remember that these are supposed to be fairly broad 
_research_ topics.  Given that our mailing list volume is light, I'd like to 
open the floor for this discussion now.

3) Propose leadership.  Once we have topics in hand, we should consider who 
would be the appropriate person or persons to lead the discussion.  What has 
worked for us has been the combination of someone with an academic background 
and contacts with someone from the IETF side of the house.  This gives a good 
mix between theoretical and practical.

The IRTF chair, Aaron Falk, has indicated that while he has final approval over 
both topics and leadership, he would like the group to largely determine its 
own direction and leaders.

Comments?  Questions?

Regards,
Tony
