IP Storage WG (ips)

Monday, July 15 at 1930-2200
Tuesday, July 16 at 1300-1400
===============================

CHAIRS:
        David L. Black <[email-masked]>
        Elizabeth Rodriguez <[email-masked]>

AGENDA: SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Announcement:  Most drafts are near
Working Group Last Call.  Everyone is encouraged to review all the
documents, prior to the meeting and:

1)    provide editorial feedback directly to the editors/authors
2)    bring up any remaining/outstanding issues immediately on the
reflector.

Most of the WG drafts are NOT listed on this agenda as their authors
and WG co-chairs are not aware of any open technical issues requiring
meeting time to discuss.  A number of WG Last Calls can be expected in
the near future.

        This draft has successfully completed WG Last Call, but with a couple of
        loose ends that need to be discussed:
        - Specification of SRP groups.  This is primarily about specifying generators
                for use of the IKE groups with SRP, and is expected to be resolved
                by the time of the meeting.  This is a placeholder to announce how
                it was resolved.
        - AES Counter Mode fallback.  AES Counter mode is "SHOULD implement", but
                is encountering difficulty in the ipsec WG (e.g., there is no current
                Internet-Draft on it).  The WG chairs propose to defer resolving this
                issue until IETF Last Call, but to discuss in this meeting
                what will be done during IETF Last Call if AES Counter mode is not
                viable - the two obvious options are (1) remove the SHOULD (AES could
                be specified in a separate subsequent draft, or (2) substitute AES CBC mod
