Maybe at the end of this year we should look into the milestones again and see what is missed or changed?

We did one late last year, will work on getting updates in.

The changes in this revision are mostly related to elaborating on the type of documents this WG produces along with some minor wordsmithing here and there. We would like to get you to review the text and provide comments. Please have a read and voice an opinion one way or the other. If we don't hear any objections by June 30th, we'll assume you love it and proceed. Thanks, KK, Gunter, Warren P.S. The current version of the charter can be found at http://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/opsec/charter/ ********** Proposed Revised OPSEC Charter: """ Goals: The OPSEC WG will document operational issues and best current practices with regard to network security. In particular, efforts will be made to clarify the rationale supporting current operational practice, address gaps in currently understood best practices for forwarding, control plane, and management plane security and clarify liabilities inherent in security practices where they exist. Scope: The scope of the OPSEC WG is intended to include the protection and secure operation of the forwarding, control and management planes. Documentation of operational issues, revision of existing operational security practices documents and proposals for new approaches to operational challenges related to network security are in scope. Method: It is expected that the product of the working group will result in the publication of informational or BCP RFCs. Taxonomy or problem statement documents may provide a basis for such documents. Informational or Best Current Practices Document For each topic addressed, a document that attempts to capture common practices related to secure network operation will be produced. This will be primarily based on operational experience. A document might convey: * a threat or threats to be addressed * current practices for addressing the threat * protocols, tools and technologies extant at the time of writing that are used to address the threat * the possibility that a solution does not exist within existing tools or technologies Taxonomy and Problem Statement Documents A document which attempts to describe the scope of particular operational security challenge or problem space without necessarily coming to a conclusion or proposing a solution. Such a document might be a precursor to an informational or best current practices document. While the principal input of the working group is operational experience and needs, the output should be directed towards providing guidance to the operators community, other working groups that develop protocols or the community of protocol developers at large and implementers of these protocols. Non-Goals: The OPSEC WG is not the place to do new protocols. New protocol work should be addressed in a working group chartered in the appropriate area or as individual submissions. The OPSEC WG may take on documents related to the practices of using such work. """
