Hi,

Here's the agenda as we've requested it to be posted for the IETF76 
meeting.  Note that we 1/ can update it as needed and 2/ will work on 
filling in details so that the individual discussion items focused.

Thanks,
Leslie.

Congestion Exposure (CONEX) BoF
===============================

Congestion Exposure (ConEx) is a proposed new IETF activity to enable 
congestion to be exposed along the forwarding path of the Internet. By 
revealing expected congestion in the IP header of packets, congestion 
exposure provides a generic network capability which allows greater 
freedom over how capacity is shared. Such information could be used for 
many purposes, including congestion policing, accountability and 
inter-domain SLAs. It may also open new approaches to QoS and traffic 
engineering.

CHAIRS:
	Leslie Daigle
	Philip Eardley
