Subject: [Int-area] intarea charter
All,
We have had Internet Area meetings for a number of years now, but I'm
not sure if anyone's noticed that its formally just a meeting and not
an official working group. We do have a list, we talk about important
topics during the meetings, and sometimes we even progress documents
that have no obvious home elsewhere. We run working group last calls,
but formally the documents that we take forward are AD sponsored
individual submissions.
Ralph and I have reviewed the situation and we think that it would
be useful to turn the group into an official working group. This
has a number of benefits:
- the group would show up in the tools.ietf.org/wg/<WG> directory
and other systems
- we'd have a charter that describes to everyone what the group
is supposed to talk about
- the process would be clearer for, say, adopting a document
- the ADs would get also a blue dot in their IETF badges :-) or
depending on workload, we could hire other chairs, secretaries,
and so on to help with the group
In other words, the group wouldn't be such a special case for
us to deal with. Thoughts? We have included a suggested charter
below.
Jari and Ralph

Description of Working Group:
The Internet Area Working Group (INTAREA WG) acts as a forum for
discussing far-ranging topics that affect the entire area. Such
topics include, for instance, address space issues, basic IP layer
functionality, and architectural questions.
The Internet Area receives occasional proposals for the development
and publication of RFCs that are not in scope of an existing working
group and do not justify the formation of a new working group. The
INTAREA WG will also serve as the forum for developing such work
items in the IETF.
The working group milestones are updated as needed to reflect the
current work items and their associated milestones. Significant new
work items will be brought for approval with the IESG.
Milestones:
December 2009 Submission of IPID document to the IESG as PS
March 2010 Submission of tunneling issues document to the IESG as
Info
December 2010 Submission of SEAL document to the IESG as Exp
