Hi,
We are currently at a point where the bulk of the drafts are either completed or at the IESG.  We still have a few documents to complete, but almost nothing has changed in the state of those documents since the last meeting.  Given that there is no new information to share or no new issues to discuss, the NETLMM WG will not meet in San Francisco.  

Here is a quick status on our WG documents: 

- IPv4 support (draft-ietf-netlmm-pmip6-ipv4-support): Completed AD review and waiting on a revised I-D

- GRE Key Option Support (draft-ietf-netlmm-grekey-option): Currently in IETF LC

- Heartbeat mechanism (draft-ietf-netlmm-pmipv6-heartbeat): Currently in IESG evaluation

- PMIP6-MIP6 interactions (draft-ietf-netlmm-mip-interactions): No open issues; WGLC to commence soon

On other charter responsibilities: 

- LMA Discovery: Related document draft-korhonen-netlmm-lma-discovery exists; consensus call for document adoption will be issued soon

- RADIUS Support: Related document draft-xia-netlmm-radius exists; awaiting feedback from RADEXT chairs;  Jonne and I will sync up with the RADEXT chairs in SFO and try to move this work along soon

- MIB Support: Related document draft-glenn-netlmm-pmipv6-mib exists;  need some reviews and sign of active work on the document to make progress

- MAG-MN Interface: This work has been withdrawn from the charter based on WG consensus

That summarizes the status of the current charter items.  Once all our documents are at least in the WGLC stage, we will open up the topic of rechartering/shut down on the mailing list.  NETLMM related activities are also in progress in the context of the NETEXT effort which will be a BoF in SFO.  

Thanks,
Vidya
