Hi,

Just a quick followup to the mic comment about our charter and milestones. Largely as I’m curious as to what work we see coming up in the WG.

I think the charter still looks good. We might de-emphasise transition mechanisms, and perhaps add a more explicit hint of bier.

Current milestones:
Jan 2014 - Submit Mtracev2 to IESG for Proposed Standards - draft-ietf-mboned-mtrace-v2
Mar 2014 - Submit Overview of Multicast in the Data Center to IESG for Informational - draft-ietf-mboned-dc-deploy
Mar 2014 - Work with TSV area to submit multicast transport guidelines for congestion control

Mtrace v2 is pretty much there :)
draft-ietf-mboned-dc-deploy-01 seems to have fizzled out - dated Aug 2013.
Not sure where we are on congestion control work, though we saw an interesting circuit breaker proposal today.

The question is what our new milestones might look like?

The current active WG and individual drafts are:

WG:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mboned-interdomain-peering-bcp-05
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mboned-mtrace-v2-16
Both are close to done.

Personal:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-acg-mboned-multicast-models-00 - a rev is coming soon after Seoul.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zhang-mboned-multicast-info-model-00 - presented today

What else might we do?
An operational document around practical deployment of bier might be useful, for example?
