doc.: IEEE /1142r0 Submission September2012 Dorothy Stanley, Aruba NetworksSlide 5 Action Items – Initial Meeting From Spencer Dawkins, Eric Gray, Dan Romascanu, Dorothy Stanley and Pat Thaler agreed to work on an update to RFC Howard Frazier and Dan Romascanu agreed to write an Informational RFC that will document the MIB transfer process. The IEEE 802 agreed to review and update the people they currently have subscribed to the new-work mailing list, and to send PARs to new-work. The IEEE 802 agreed to add a page to their website listing their current liaison relationships. The IEEE 802 will look at removing mailing list restrictions that prevent IETF participants from contributing to IEEE 802 work. The IESG agreed to draft an IESG Statement regarding Ethertype Requests. The IAB and IESG will suggest a process for providing feedback to the IEEE RAC on Virtualization and OUI Tiers.

Liaisons are appointed by the IAB when the IAB feels that conditions warrant appointing a specific person to such a task. Note that such appointments are rare as the best way for organizations to work with the IETF is to do so within the working groups –Liaison statements are here:

The protocol was designed to be easy to extend - adding new features and developing clients for other mobile platforms should be as easy as possible. –Of Interest: Minimum Requirements for Physical Layout of Home Networks, –Of Interest: Extended Multicast DNS: mdns/ mdns/
doc.: IEEE /1142r0 Submission September2012 Dorothy Stanley, Aruba NetworksSlide 17 Dynamic Host Configuration (dhc) WG See The DHC WG is responsible for reviewing DHCP options or other extensions (for both IPv4 and IPv6). –The DHC WG is expected to review all proposed extensions to DHCP to ensure that they are consistent with the DHCP specification and other option formats, that they do not duplicate existing mechanisms, etc. –Generally speaking, the DHC WG will not be responsible for evaluating the semantic content of proposed options. Similarly, the ownership of specifications typically belongs the relevant working group that needs more functionality from DHCP, not the DHC WG. The DHC WG coordinates reviews of the proposed options together with those working groups. It is required that those working groups have consensus to take on the work and that the work is within their charter. Exceptionally, with AD agreement, this same process can also be used for Individual Submissions originating outside WGs. Updates [September 2012] –Of interest:
