Here are the minutes from a discussion with IEEE 802.3 on the

Did anything happen in the IETF as a result of this?
As far as I know, work on a Jumbo Frame document did not go forward
within IETF. However, I assume that the offer of assistance from
IEEE 802.3 still remains valid.
To the best of my recollection, the work on Jumbo Frames culminated
in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-isis-ext-eth-01 (and
possibly one other draft that's now lost in the mists of time) and
was primarily driven by one particular operator. Given personnel
turnover at the operator, I think that you'll find it hard to find a
motivated constituency, especially given the chilly reception the
first time.
