This is reasonable *but only if* people who care about the requirements document are at the Paris meeting. If not, then we will have a quiet room with only one or two speakers and many people who will have wasted their time and money. Are there more volunteers to work on the requirements document *soon* so that we can get a feel for the need for the meeting? --Paul Hoffman _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list IPsec@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
