From YouTube: IETF 104 Plenary

Description

On 27 March 2019 (16:10-18:40 UTC) the IETF 104 plenary session included the usual administrative topics.

A

B

Flannery please come on in and take a seat you're standing in the back.

B

If people who are standing in the back could close the door in behind you and come on in and take a seat, that would be great.

B

Welcome to the plenary session here at IETF 104, my name is ELISA Cooper I'm, the chair of the IETF, we're here in lovely Prague. Once again, one of our favorite cities.

B

As people probably know a typical IETF meeting, we have lots of great tutorials. We actually had a longer tutorial session just today on modern router architecture, and earlier this week on Sunday, there was a really a really special tutorial where we went kind of above and beyond the typical content. I, don't know how many of you got to go, but there was a tutorial about how to create an internet. So in case you don't like the one that we have we're trying to teach people.

B

If anybody wants to come to the mic later and tell us what they learned in the tutorial about how to create an internet I think the rest of us would be very much appreciative.

B

In fact, it was a tutorial about how to create an internet draft with tools that support our new RFC format, so I actually encourage you to go. Take a look at the at the materials there. If you're going to be submitting drafts in the new RFC format and if you're less interested in building a new internet and more interested in building something else, you may have checked out the adjacent conference about the inter snack.

B

If anybody attended that- and you want to come to the microphone and tell us what that's about that would also be most appreciative. I really want to know what the interesting hack is, because I have no idea what it actually is.

B

So here's a bit on our agenda today we'll be hearing from our meeting co-hosts shortly then we'll have brief updates from myself from our outgoing and incoming I RTF chairs, from the RFC editor from those who work on the administration of the IETF, both at the staff level and the board level, we'll hear from the IETF trust and from our previous sonam comm chair substitute, because our actual previous NomCom chairs couldn't be with us in our next non-pom chair, we'll hear a little bit about the upcoming Costello award for this year.

B

A preview of IETF 105 will have a recognition portion for a number of people who will be transitioning out of various roles in the IETF and then we're gonna. Have our typical open microphone sessions you'll see because we no longer have the IAO C. We will have an open microphone session with the IETF LLC board for the first time and there's no technical plenary topic today. So I'm sure this will be very short and sweet. So.

B

First I'd like to thank our co-host for this meeting.

B

We wouldn't be able to put these meetings on without the support of our sponsors and in particular, of our hosts, who make a huge donation of support to the ITF. So if I could ask Cullen and Andre to come up, we have gifts of appreciation for you.

C

So hello, everybody welcome to Pratt coming for me, it's your fifth meeting in Prague, who you know everything and very difficult position, as you know, seventh time, I'm speaking in front of you trying to say something silly about Czech, Republic and trying to avoid talking about my company and guys I'm, really, you know getting out of topics so.

D

C

Time I think I spoke a little bit about Czech language. I talked to some some chick words in ITF, 93, I I've talked about you know the chick personality, how objects behave, and you know this time. I- would like to talk a little bit about the area. I think you all know it, because it's your first time here, but still, if maybe I, can share the few words from from a viewpoint of a local. So here's the muck of crack and I, would like to introduce you five city districts.

C

They are very close. You can walk there, although you know you have the train ticket for the whole week, so we can travel to to all the various parts of Prague, but those areas those districts are workable. We are in a pretty like modern park called Karine. To be honest, is not very interesting part of crime. It used to be an industrial area, so there were queues to be many more houses. Now it's turning to a residential area.

C

One interesting fact is that here used to invent one of the greatest invention, inventors of the cheeki students, the Krishi who created the Socialists adjustable arc lamp, which the time was superior to Edison's light bulb, but other than that they are not very nice part of track. One.

E

C

Fact about this part, it was really badly damaged by a great flood. In 2002 many many houses collapsed, which, surprisingly, let's do a new development of this area. So many new houses were built, many offices or residential houses were built even actually this, this hotel was flooded in 2002. We wouldn't be here because the water was a bit higher and what.

F

Was interesting that the management.

C

Of the of the hotel had a very interesting plan when the water level was rising, they they flooded the basement of the hotel by clear water. So when the flood came, this water helped the building, statics and also the dirty water couldn't get in. So this is hotel was really pretty quickly after the flood, while the other building as I said some of them collapse or or couldn't be used for a long time.

C

D

C

Know quite well, it's called nove mesto this to translate is called new town. It's a little bit weird name, because new town is part of what we call the historical center of prat. So it has been new for more than 650 years. Actually, but.

C

It's still a little bit younger brother of City Park called Old Town, which is more than thousand years old. So that's why it was. It was founded by one of the greatest kings and Charles. The force, who really you know, was pretty important for the city, so he founded this city power, the new town and also another part which which I really like it's called the Nahanni. The translation is Waimea, so it was not supposed to be a residential area right.

C

It is now, but it really was an attempt to produce wine in this in this code and city, so it was not really successful and also after you know, the rapid growth of the city and the like. 150 years ago, the municipality decided to turn it to residential area. So that was the end of attempt trying to grow grapes in in Prague, and we could really fully concentrate on beer, which I think was very, very good idea so and it's still working now.

C

So this is one of the dominant of the of the of the auditorium. There is much less tourists and in the city center and a lot of great restaurants and pubs, their second dominant is another church. It's on the city square called non EST uses. Palabra I know it's very easy to say that name.

C

There is a there's. A underground station with the same name is USP develop and for some strange reasons the ex body is the furnace living here. Ecologist, gzp, I, don't know why item they, somehow don't wanna, say this beautiful name, interesting about this City Square is that the main building of seasoning is like 102 meters from from the church. So that's an NRI work and that's that's what we like there another and maybe more interesting part is called Shishkoff. It has the same history as wine art.

C

It was also part of money at the time and then why now it was split into two areas, one it's now called Vinogradov minor again and the second part good, a named after one of the most interesting commanders.

C

His his name was jischke, of course, and this is one of the six european commanders who never lost a single battle, and this is not caused by the fact that he didn't battle at all. But this was caught by the fact that he was really good by the way he the time he was he was leading. It was in the in the beginning of 15th century.

C

Shortly after 400, he was leading a kind of proto protestant church and that time, the idea that there would be other than catholic church not very proper in europe, so that he can decided to kind of eliminate this movement and they they issue like five holy Crusades that went to bohemia, and they were all defeated three of them by by this dis gentleman and to look after his death by by his successor, so very interesting fighter, and maybe the spirit of this man is kind of a part of this.

C

This part of this district, because it's quite kind of rebellion, part of probably the most bohemian prac of a part of crack. So the source of wisdom called wikipedia says that this district has highest concentration of pups per capita in all european districts. So I'm sure it's true or it's not very far from compared to the narrative of the pups, are fancy, and you can still see some tourists there in juice coffee. You will not see any.

C

They are just locals and the good thing that anytime you're thirsty you can go there and have a beer. You know any time of day night, whatever this this city part, never stops. It used to have a little bit better reputation.

C

You know the the people living there are still proud of it, so they never accepted the fact that jischke became part of Prague in 1922 and some of them still call it the Free Republic of Shishkoff.

C

So this kind of independent part of pride and many like the free air meetings happenings festivals, are, you know, happening there, so some very area that I would recommend for somebody who wants to see the local culture, the that is the fourth district and the fifth district is also a very interesting, mainly mainly by the fact that I really couldn't find anything interesting about it at all. That's amazing part of pride. It's really tough I can illustrate it by a sign that was found on one of the one of the buildings.

C

Please read it.

C

That's amazing part of the city so.

D

C

You are asking yourself why I chose it right. Why?

C

Because I wanted to check if you did your homework, do you remember my presentation? Two years ago, I taught you this simple sentence and I told you, please repeat it: we don't have a contest and who will be able to say it. You know live in something. So again, it's very simple sentence: touch / script, script by the way, somebody after my presentation tweeted that he wasn't sure whether the English sentence below is a translation all the way how to pronounce it. So I just wanted to make clear that this is a translation.

C

Actually, it's it's not so tough, so I am sure all you did have your homework right. So who wants to be first I know if something is too easy, nobody wants to be first right, it's like going to my can sake grass, green right, so, okay, so but I I do believe you you did your best so, and so the next level would be name of this of this city district.

C

It has all the beauty of Czech language it is, are used as a vowel.

C

It has the magical letter, sir, which you know it's a nightmare for all the foreigners in this country, and it's part of my name actually, and it is also very interesting meaning and gain the English words in in parenthesis below it's. Not it's translation, not the way how to say it. Okay, so this city part is called cut-throats which, which is promising. You know you would believe there must be something interesting, but but it's not so the simple check rod is hablas as a okay, and we will be able to say me to say this.

C

This name with the sentence on the next meeting will have a beer for me. Okay, so again, thank you very much for choosing product as your ITF city and see you at the next meeting. Itf 110.

B

Thank you. We do have a gift for our other co-hosts who I saw walk in so would you like to come up and get your gift Cisco.

E

It's a pleasure to be able to sponsor this, along with our friends at C's, Enoch I'm loved, to be back in Prague. This time. I hope everyone this week gets a ton of great work done in a style that makes new friends and makes it a pleasant place to work have a great week and welcome to project.

B

Alright, so I have a few items to report on. There's lots more information in the written report that the isg and myself sent out to the IETF mailing list before the meeting today we're going to look a little bit at some participant statistics talk a little bit about some of the meeting experiments that we've been running, follow up from the open microphone session at the last plenary. A brief update on the Ombuds team and I'll spend a moment on our standards of professional behavior here in the ITF.

B

So these are our participants statistics for this meeting. We have about 1200 people who are here on-site, 234, first-time attendees, which is a which is a nice high number for an ITF meeting, fairly similar attendance to what we had a year ago in London and 63 different countries represented here at this meeting.

B

If we take a look at the trends, what this shows you is the overall attendance, the first-time attendees and the set of attendees who've attended, 80 percent or more of prior meetings.

B

You can see it as you would expect the meeting attendance kind of goes up and down depending on the location and the time of year, and the first-time attendees fluctuates somewhat in tandem with that, although a bit on its own curve and then the last line is a little bit on the decline. So the the true believers in the ITF who have been around the longest are becoming a smaller group over time.

B

We had a record-breaking ITF hackathon on Saturday and Sunday 370 people are on site, working on 44 different projects, every different kind of every area of the ITF represented and lots of people working on projects adjacent to a ETF technologies. We also had the hack demo happy hour on Monday night, where teams got to present some of the what they had worked on over the weekend and for those who are interested in joining in on this particular kind of fun. We have another hackathon scheduled at the start of the week of IETF 105 in Montreal.

B

So please consider that when you make your travel plans, you don't need to be previously involved in a project in order to get started. There's lots of people there who can help. You find a team find something to work on over the weekend and hopefully help advance the implementation and deployment of IETF standards.

B

If we look at the trend for for the hackathon attendance is growing over meeting over meeting more or less and as I said we had, we had a big jump from from our previous record in Bangkok to now. So this is definitely an event. That's attracting more and more attention and participation from people who attend the IGF meeting and also others, which is fantastic.

B

So meeting experiments some people might be aware that we are running an experiment at this meeting with unstructured time in the agenda. This is actually the second different iteration of this particular experiment, so at ATF 103 we ran an experiment where we had some unstructured time. On the Friday of the meeting week, there were rooms available that people could book on a first-come, first-served basis, but there were not any working group sessions on the Friday.

B

We conducted a meeting survey after IETF 103, just like we do after every meeting and the survey feedback indicated that almost nobody likes having unstructured time on Friday, but people were quite interested in having unstructured time in the middle of the week and as a result for this meeting, we scheduled some unser in the middle of the week. So earlier today we had a block that was free. There were side, meeting rooms again available to book and just as a note, because there's I think been some confusion about this.

B

The way that we've been able to accommodate this and still accommodate all of the working groups that put in a request for time is by maintaining enough slots to accommodate all of those groups, but shortening some of the slots. So we have the same number of slots available more or less that we've that we've had for many years, but we've we've offered different size slots in order to be able to accommodate that. So we've received lots of feedback about this experiment already on the IETF list and the working group chairs list.

B

So thank you very much for that, and we're definitely welcome to to hear more from you. We're really gonna be relying on the MTG survey to provide us with a broad-based view, not just an opinion here and there on a mailing list, but to try to get a sense of of the whole community or the whole community. That's willing to fill out a survey about how they're how they like what we're doing with the schedule.

B

What we're trying with the schedule we've crafted a bunch of very specific questions on this topic that are in the MTG survey. That will be going out toward the end of the week or possibly over the weekend. So if this is a topic that you care to voice an opinion on, please fill out the MTG survey when it goes out. You can also, of course, always send feedback to the isg at our at our email address and before we run the experiment at night, EF 103.

B

We announced it many months in advance because it was on the Friday. We knew that it would affect people's travel plans, so we announced it in May and then ran the experiment in November. For this, this iteration of the experiment. We wanted to wait and see how many working group requests came in and whether we thought we could actually make it work without creating too much conflict between the working groups.

B

So we waited to be real specific about what we were going to do with the unstructured time until the working group requests went in for the next iteration. We, if we, if we carry forward this experiment at all, which we may or may not, we plan to announced it further in advance. We thought we would wait in case we in case it just seemed like it would create too much conflict, but it seems like waiting created more of a problem than than the problem it's solved.

B

So certainly, if we, if we intend to try another version of this experiment, will tell people further in advance. Next time, we've also been running an experiment around a new event on Sunday evening called request for conversation pot RFC.

B

This event includes lightning talks and other kind of brief pitches to encourage people to brainstorm collaborate to announce something that might be going on later in the week. So this took place on Sunday at 6 o'clock and there were 15 different presentations. You can check out the proceedings online.

B

We've now had this event, three or four times something that Aaron for three five, four okay.

B

So it seems to the ihd that people like this, where we could maybe move this out of the experimental phase and declare it a successful experiment, but we're also always looking for feedback about how to change or improve it. So please send send that our way and many thanks to Aaron Faulk for incubating this idea and for making it a success.

B

So at the last plenary we had some open microphone discussion about behavior and conduct in working groups. I talked about this at some length and as a result of that, the IHG kicked off some initial discussion with the working group chairs in by email in December, and we've continued to kind of go back and forth.

B

Take the feedback from the wooden group chairs and discuss it within the IHG and back with the order of chairs again and as a result of that conversation, there's a couple different areas that were that we're looking to explore further one is around guidance or training for the IETF leadership and for the workgroup chairs about managing difficult situations that that may arise and then the other one is around a better means of archiving expired work.

B

So one of the topics that came up in this discussion was that when people enter newly into a working group, they might not be aware of what work has happened in the past or, more importantly, what discussions have happened that didn't you know, produce ending RFC's but were considered concluded or abandoned by the group, and so there's been some conversation about how we could better demarcate when a piece of work or a discussion, as has concluded without without proceeding on to standardization, so we're still having conversations with people about those things and and will continue to followup with the community.

B

If we figure out what we think we could do to help.

B

We also have a new member of our Ombuds team. Melinda Shore started in January as as part of this team, and she joins Allison, Menken and Pete Resnick. So thank you to Melinda for being willing to serve and to Allison and Pete for continuing a really important function for the IETF. If you ever have an issue with harassment, your these are your your people that you can go to to to get guidance and advice and to speak with someone in confidence.

B

We are really striving to create and maintain an environment here where people feel included and where everyone feels like they get treated with dignity and respect. We have a number of different policies and guidelines that go into more detail about this, so I encourage you to to check them out, and the Ombuds team that you just saw on the screen can be reached at their email address and there's more information about them on their website.

B

As I said at the top there's a bunch more information covered in our online report and in the reports from the various other bodies. So if you want more details, please take a look there and we're always writing updates about various things on the blog, including a preview of this meeting. That'll be highlights from this meeting posted there as well, and that I'd like to invite our outgoing incoming iron chef chairs to come on up.

G

That's a good way retire. Somebody all right so uh Colin and I are going to tell you about the IRT F, ATF, 104 and first of all, I want to say thanks to the IRT F, it's been amazing. Thank you, Prague, I'm, very happy to have it. My term ending here. I have a big lump in my from that and I wanted to just reflect a little bit about what happened in these two years.

G

Two years might not seem like a lot of time, but it feels like a lot of time and we actually had a lot of things happen and the research groups overall have been very good at fulfilling their mission of being rigorous and thinking about the long horizon, while also thinking how might this be applied, so rigorous, long horizon and relevant, and at the time since I've got started, we've had five new ones, path to where networking decentralized, Internet infrastructure, the non blockchain research group, privacy, enhancements and assessments, and we've determined that it was three meetings.

G

So it's actually transitioning to not proposed now a new quantum internet proposed research group that just started and a bunch of you went to the tutorial and I hear it was really fun and then enlivening and then one that's starting and we'll meet this week later in the week. The computation in the network proposed research, group and I also think of this as two years of really wonderful community growth for IRT F, but also for the I family.

G

We had a bunch of people coming because of the applied networking research prize, including returnees, as we got donations from from some of our sponsors to give us more travel funds. So not just the six awards, but people had been buried here before and seemed like it would benefit from coming.

G

And then these do research group chairs, so that I've mentioned I'll show you a list of people I'll, just flash it by the workshop in in the a in the applied networking research workshop workshop in eighteen last year had an innovation suggested by his chairs of meeting during IETF week and as a result, there were well. There were a hundred participants at that they were either new to the IETF or were very entirely or or had been only very rarely, and many of them stayed and participated. So I think this has been a good innovation.

G

We're going to continue this. There was a lot of of growth of communities because of IRT F groups going to the hackathons and I just want to call it especially HR, PC and think to thing research group among the many as using those hackathons, extremely well map our G, which is the measurement research group. Not only had tremendous presenters but also grew a great big repository of data that you should take a look at and even though documents are often the story for the ITF for the IR tips.

G

You should also check the wiki's and get a pose for our artifacts and and reporting and comments and discussion as well as the mailings, and this is just a selection of some of the new people and I'm not going to call people out.

G

But we have a bunch of people who are from many places and it's been a really interesting time, and these are just the people associated with the events in my two years and now I'm going to welcome Colin as the incoming IRT F chair I, said on this slide that he had just received the IRT F chair dot. But there actually isn't one and I would have given him the IR s G dot, but he already had one so instead I covered that my aria IR s G dot with a surveillance.

G

Massive massive massive, pervasive monitoring is a an attack dot that I've just created and also one from the women the Women in Technology dot. That says, yes, we can, from now over to Colin Colin's visit the ITF for quite a long time and he's done lots of different working group, chair chips and contributions, largely in transport. It's been observed that we've had a lot of transport folks become IRT, F, chairs and I.

G

Think as a transport person, that's entirely natural, but Colin may speak yeah and then he's on the faculty of the University of Glasgow and and there's his website in his picture and welcome to Colin.

H

Thank you thank thank you. Alison I am I have to say honored and a little humbled to be selected and very much look forward to working with the community, although I think they may treat the absence of a dot as an excuse to pretend I was never nominated too late. All right, so the first thing I would like to do is so very, very big. Thank you to.

H

H

Allyson I think has has worked very very hard to increase the diversity in the IRT F. We have a much more diverse set of people in the research group chairs in the IR s G, and a much much much more diverse set of research groups and topics which I think is very very valuable, very important to increase the diversity. This way, she's chatted some very interesting, very exciting new research groups, I think in particular the quantum internet group which I think you charted is gonna.

H

Give me the the biggest learning curve of any group in this this organization, so I look forward to trying to keep on top of their documents and I.

H

Think she's also done a very good job with the applied networking research prize, and we had some talks earlier in the week in the ITF open meeting, and there were very excellent research prize talks there and also growing and enhancing the visibility of the applied networking research workshop, which I think is a really great way of bringing people from from the research community in getting them to talk to the standards. Community I think it's very beneficial for the long-term health of both organizations.

H

So again, Thank You Allison, a small.

I

H

Thanks from the community.

H

Now, thank you once again.

H

Okay, so just have to forward-looking things that I'd like to mention before we finish. First, the applied networking research workshop. You know it's happened. It's been running for the last couple of years last year in Montreal it took place on the Monday and we had some good interactions. There will be having again, coincidentally in Montreal since we're going back this summer again in the Monday of the ITF week. This is an academic research workshop. The the results will be published by the ACM.

H

If you have research work relating to applied networking research, please consider submitting a paper. The submission deadline is the 10th of May. So there's still plenty of time to do that. This is being run by Janet Leigh anger.

H

I, don't see him he's here somewhere this week and it is a long-term ITF participant and Philip a girl from from the University of Massachusetts, in addition which but have slightly smaller interests, but there is a workshop on evaluation performance in interoperability of quick, which will relate to a large number of people in the transport area. The submission deadline on the 15th of April, which allows Eggert in the oak lot, are running and again, if you have research work or an interesting, quick, please consider submitting to that workshop.

H

Thank you. I look forward to working with everyone.

H

What for the next time? Thank you.

B

We have next the RFC editor.

J

So much fun, seeing all my closest friends again so I know you've seen me up here a few times, but I'm just gonna check. Do you guys know that I've been working on this format, project.

J

Crazy talk, I know if you are new or you live under a rock I've, been working on changing the format to rfcs for the last six years, and the goals of the project are to create a xml file that will be used to transform into plain text PDF, a3 and HTML.

J

The HTML actually has a proper CSS you'll be allowed to use SVG line art in black and white you'll be allowed to use non ASCII characters. All of this information is documented in various and sundry rfcs, all of which will go through a BIST process. Once we've actually taken what we thought might work and actually check to see.

J

Did it actually do what we wanted it to do, all of which is going to be happening this year, so project status, discussion happen happens on the XML to RFC devilís, because we're really talking about the tools that have been in play under development over the last couple years. I wanted to do a quick shout-out to Calais oft, where they are our partner of Adobe and they've, donated to the RFC editor of the software. We needed to create PDF a3.

J

There's not a lot of libraries out there that will create you a PDF, a free file. As of Monday. The data tracker accepts v3 XML. If you get, you know really enthusiastic about this, you can to the xml to RFC website to the experimental page and say you know what I have a v2 file I want to, could you make it v3 do the thing and it will automatically create a v3 file which you can submit and say. Well, I want to see what the HTML is.

J

Gonna look like and it will show you or you could say. I want to see what the text output looks like, because it's slightly different than today, and it will show you that in my head I would very much like for this to be in production. Come August hold that thought.

J

I have a sneaking suspicion that Murphy's Law is going to hit me up the head with something called cluster 238.

J

Optimistically I'm told that that will happen. You know cluster 238, we really hopeful will come come out in May, but you know things get delayed, sometimes and I'm. Just you know it's coming out in August I know it's coming out in August, so I'm just waiting for it. So the timing is, is definitely open to a little bit of question right now. There is an inordinate amount of behind-the-scenes work going on. So, if you look at the RFC editor report, for example, you'll see that the RC production Center is not meeting the SLA.

J

This is something we knew that would happen and that we've been trying to prepare people for for quite some time. We're not missing it by a lot, but just enough to turn that that X to be read, so that's not gonna stop either at least for the next few months so be aware that there is, there is a slowdown in getting stuff out. Well, we should've already forgave me, that's the highlight of what I wanted to tell you about.

J

There's a couple other slides here in my deck, because I also told folks on a completely unrelated fashion, that I was going to start a basically a vendor satisfaction survey to see how the RFC production Center is doing and I promised you an update by ITTF 104, so that update is in these slides. If you've got questions about it, you can look at that and you can drop me a note if you want any more information that I can share. I.

J

Have someone staring at me for a question? Should I take that or wait for it.

J

I'm, coming back to ask you if you have questions at the mic, I'm coming back with the IAB because they can't get it so just come back to the mic, pin and I'll answer your question. Thank you.

B

Okay: next up, we have the ITF Administration LLC.

G

Hello, everyone.

K

My name is Portia when Stanley I am the ietf LLC executive, director, interim and I'm here to give the Eadie report, as Alissa spoke earlier, I'd like to thank our sponsors, our hosts for IT, f-104, Cisco, Cisco and C's ethnic I want to make sure I try to pronounce that correctly and I really do appreciate everything that you all have done to make this meeting a success.

K

Our Silver Sponsor akame there thank you very much and a bronze sponsor the best VPN comm in clinic connectivity's classes, dial, telecom and t-mobile. Thank you very much for your service. Of course they make everything happen for us. So thank you, and we also want to make sure we faked our equipment sponsors, because it takes a lot of equipment to actually bring the circuits and everything in to make everything work, cisco again and juniper networks.

K

And for the sister's program, thank you spawn fastly for your deletion in support of the sisters and for the Welcome Reception. Thank you to the Hilton throg and for another successful hackathon. Thank you to Oracle, for your donation and also for to Cisco and Dubner.

K

For the code sprint, thank you to all the contributors for the idea of data tractor enhancement and to the NOC. Thank you to come for everyone who is involved.

K

We have fine speed, medical and also our volunteers, of course, who make everything happen for the knot, and if you have time, please join our host speakers for the series we have Frank Buckner's and Benoit Klaus from Cisco, that's tomorrow, 12:30 in the Grand Ballroom, and thank you to the Comcast NBC Universal for sponsoring IETF 105 next year in Montreal, I'm, sorry this year in Montreal, and also we have a new global host, Nokia and I'm, not sure if our representative is here, but we did want to thank you very much for your I.

K

Thank you very much for coming on as a global host. The global hosts are the highest level of support for the IETF, and we really appreciate that and as well the they have already signed on to support IETF 106 in Singapore. So thank you very much again to all of our local hosts, many of pre much appreciation for all that you do and regarding sponsorship. Changes for the ITF kim board and what most of some of you, I would say, have a chance to meet Ken during the last year.

K

His contract has concluded as the IETF sponsorship sponsorship fundraiser, and the board is really thanks to Kim for all of his hard work. He did a lot while he was here during the last year and as we move on the board, the incoming boarder, who was official mal, will take time to actually develop a longer term plan for what they see as the in sponsorship for in fundraising goals for the ietf LLC. So that's coming and in the meantime, if you are interested in doing any type of sponsorships, please see me Porcia win Stanley.

K

Thank you and I'm. Also the generic, it's generic, but it still comes to one person. The young sponsorship email addresses sponsorship at IETF, dot, org our future meeting venues. As you can take a look there.

K

We have identified venues up through IETF 111 in San Francisco, and so we just wanted to point out that we have dates and in venues that are identified for the next view was three years of meetings and where you see some spots there, we do need sponsors for those, and we are also in the process of actually identifying and working on the contracts for four other venues. So a lot is happening for meeting hidden for the IETF.

K

The Prague meetings on snapshot for paid and on-site attendance.

K

1150 remote participants, 729 visa LOI, is issued 152 and a registration revenue is 830 101 at 7:00 on sponsorship, revenue 190,000.

K

And the reserved registration breakdown.

K

L

So I'm Wendy and I'm gonna run you through the the LLC board, has been up to and working on since the LC got formed at the end of August.

L

5 is really to get the LLC up and running. It's like a brand-new baby. You got a feed and take care of it. Make it happen. We do finalizing the financial transaction or transcript from I sock. That was probably one of the key things to accomplish in 2018, because I sock was providing significant portions of the startup capital female for the IGF LLC.

L

That was a very long road to get there, but we got there and the money's in the bank can be cashed. The check so yeah we've also as part of the transition there's a number of RFPs for services such as a Secretariat that we're coming up do as many people know these contracts we have for these services are periodically required to be.

L

We bid just to make sure that we're getting the best deal overall for the ITF in particularly some of them were up in 2018 for a rebid as approve the process, but because of the LLC coming on board being founded. One of the things we do is we stall with many of them and delayed them into 2019 with temporary patches. So we sort of kicked it over to the incoming Board to say deal with this, but you're fully constituted.

L

You know up and running with all your governance and financial models in place, and so that will be taking place this year. So this will be the year of the RFP I think in 2019. The other thing we will also be doing Porsche is our interim director. She's always had that term technical techride minute, and that's because it's part of the transition plan that has always been that there will be a search done for the executive director of Porsche Pitney in in term of ID.

L

Sorry thank you and we renamed the executive director because it better fit with a role within an LLC, and so we could understand it. Work with sister works, we're gonna be doing a search, and so that would be taking place. So if you are interested the there will be a process we don't and and stay tuned, it will be happy very shortly. The other thing we've been doing is been getting ready for the incoming new board.

L

It's been a lot of time, a little big change and the NomCom did their job and the SQ did their job and eyestalk do their job. They picked us to slay the five candidates and we've been getting them prepared and ready to assume their job today, so I'm out of it and they're into it.

L

Another big part of the governance by the way is the LLC compliance program, one of the core requirements that I saw put onto us before they would give us that money at the top of the agenda was that we have a compliance program place because they wanted an ensure that we were a well-run and well-managed and we'll see not just a bunch of guys and, ladies that were gonna, take the money and run off to Hawaii.

L

So we worked hard from getting that established and the incoming board will continue that work of establishing the governance process.

L

The other big important thing that was really made clear during the is to word group discussions was transparency is huge. You know we didn't want to create an LLC that was gonna, go off and be secretive and closed and just issue you know, orders down from on high, just like the the compliance process was important to I, saw the transparency process what's important to the community, and so we've been working very hard.

L

One of the very first actions taken by the board when we started up in August was to declare that we will have public meetings and we've been doing that all along, including when we had a in the fall. We are in a separate. We have a face-to-face for companies and for the persons of that which are not confidential, because a lot of what we deal with is confidential legal contracts, personnel, types of stuff and financial stuff. We have to be careful and keep that confidential for that stuff. That is not confidential.

L

He was wide open for participants. We didn't call it and join it as well. The meeting minutes that we take during that are all made public and published, so the biddies are post on our website the agenda. The goal we put in the sake of the ground that they will always come out a week ahead, so please join in and follow along. If you want to know more about, what's going on inside the LLC and I have the pleasure of announcing our in welcoming our five new board members. We have Jason Livengood in the middle.

L

There he's been selected by the incoming Board as their chair. We have Sean Turner who's decided to become the Treasury Peter federalists over your left, my right Alisa Cooper. You may have better and Maya and I'm. Forgive me my I cannot do and adrylek okay and that's the report from the outgoing board. Jason.

M

Great thanks, um sorry, shocking transition, right literally a shock and so I think. The first thing is to thank our outgoing interim board members, I think Gonzalo committee. Oh there we have Ted Hardy and Glenn Dean a round of applause, because I.

M

Think the community really appreciates that it was really an unprecedented kind of transition that we just went through from the IOC to this interim board. With a great deal of uncertainty and I appreciate know, the community does appreciate your navigation of that and I. Don't know when I do black things all right. So if I could ask you each to come up Ted and Gonzales and you're obviously already.

M

Actually says your name here, so this is the you'll get a plaque like this, but with your actual name there, so first Thank You Glen, very much appreciate.

M

And will say thank you to.

M

And so expected focus area for the board in the coming year. We have rather a lot of things to do I think as an understatement and I tried to just sort of list the high level bits here. Obviously, we need to hire a full-time or permanent executive director that sort of job number one and a lot of things can flow from that. We also know that we need to focus on these sort of revenue side of things.

M

If you will certainly Portia mentioned a bunch of our generous sponsors beforehand, but our intent is to grow that and to grow and build a foundation of support for the ITF, and we would sort of put those in two different buckets a few. Well, one would be sponsorship, which was traditionally what we've done and then fundraising, which is really more about.

M

You know sort of the other aspects of the endowment and so on, and those two things will go hand-in-hand in some ways, but there may be very different sort of target groups that we go after to try to fundraise and of course, there are quite a number of policies and other sorts of legal things that we need a compliance program, and these are needed even just to get things like insurance to cover meetings like this.

M

You know if someone has a problem and they injured themselves, you need liability, insurance and there's a whole host of things like this that we will need to hire people. We will need to comply with. You know IRS rules in the United States for tax purposes, and so on. So we need to create all of those. Many of those were already in the asset to document, so you can get a sense of what they are, but there was a lot of them.

M

Luckily, we've got some other very experienced board members that are here that are on other to have experience and there are a lot of best practices that we'll be using and then finally, we have a lot of services that are coming up to rebid of 2019, including the Secretariat and their small thing and I would say throughout all these things around the policies, compliance and especially you reap it. We are going to expect a need and rely upon a lot of feedback from the ITF community.

M

We don't intend to do this, as Glenn said in terms of the transparency requirements to do this in the background, but we are going to genuinely need and be asking for your requirements. Your feedback in different areas and I would encourage folks to do that, because these are some big decisions and we want to make sure we, you know, make make the right decisions for a lot of the supporting infrastructure and and people that the ITF depends upon, and so, in terms of you know, contact information. You know all the standard stuff there's a website.

M

Of course you know email address with public feedback. You can reach out to that address of any time or any board members individually, of course, but if you send a mail there, it goes to all of the board members, no one else other than the board members, so it's private to within the board, and you can give us any feedback that you like and we're asked any questions and, of course you can join any of the board. Meetings will certainly be continuing.

M

The practices that bland and the prior interim or put in place around transparency of you know, agendas and participation, these sorts of things and hopefully enhance that to some extent, and this report can be found at the URL below it's also someplace.

M

So that's it. Thank you very much and I think we're next.

D

M

Trust right so ITF trust update, use doing that all right, hey all right. So thank you very much appreciate your support.

N

So basically I will digit. This is Mikey boy speech, I would say, because so we have a new set of Trustees and you see their faces, I guess on the Spree I guess most of you already know them and I'm very happy that we have this descent of people. Also. Today we had an election, which was basically the last thing I executed as to trust, chair and plane was selected protected as a statue and Happiness education.

O

L

We don't do that pictures here in this part of the book for the Elco in trust chips. It's later, okay, we'll cover them. That's why? If he knows I disappeared early off the CH I thought trust is on I got I can run back and be up there. So I'll go off the stage.

B

Next, we have the NomCom, Peter and Victor.

P

Alright, on behalf of the absent scott mansfield, on giving the pom-pom update for ietf 104, as you can see there, it says, make sure someone is holding the ladder and Scott had a small accident that involved a very quick descent from a ladder that keeps him from traveling for the couple of months so but he's hearing on Medeco, and we wish you were here in person, so I'm happy to report. All of the cats are in all of the boxes.

P

We had I believe 54, unique nominees for 20 different positions, so the NomCom managed to get all of that done. I think that's, probably a record for any NomCom and we are finished for now. So we are in quiet mode. If something comes up, we will be reactivated for the for interim actions, but otherwise we're going to be handing off to the next Donal time.

P

These are the 17 members of the 2018-2019 NomCom. Could I have a round of applause for their hard work.

P

These filings fine folks, aside from doing the things that you see, obviously at the meetings also were part of weekly teleconferences lots of email and many deliberations, and these are the confirmed results of the NomCom process for 2018-2019, and please give these folks a round of applause as well. We're very appreciative for their.

P

I'd also like to thank the community without the community, the NomCom process would not go well at all all of the people that ran the art, gauntlet of long questionnaires and perhaps grueling interviews. We thank them. The community members also who provided the large amounts of feedback that we get. We do read all of that. It's all kept in the data tracker and we use that to guide our decisions.

P

We also thank the IETF and I Sauk leadership for their support and guidance and finally, to the AMS staff, who has given us a lot of support on site and finally, I'd like to introduce our incoming NomCom chair for 2019 2020, Victor, coercing.

Q

Suppose it hands back to you when I'm done only a couple of words: I, don't really have a slide. It was a busy year, as Peter mentioned, and Scott did a really really good job. So I only hope that in the incoming year that we can do as good of a job that Scott did, he was very, very organized. We had a lot of feedback, many many many many hours reading. All of your feedback was much appreciated.

Q

We could not do this without the support of all the members were voting. The members from the various bodies to help us along the way Peter did a great job from you know. This is a third year he's basically, here doing all this work, so I really appreciated all of Peters guidance, and so just hope we can do a good job coming up. Please if you're able to please come be part of the NomCom. This upcoming year is a lot of work at the very rewarding. You learn a lot about the IETF and about process.

Q

You learn a lot about the leadership, so I really hope to have a lot of folks put their names forward so that we can do as good of a job as their previous years. So thank you. Thank you. Oh.

B

Oh, did you want to do your call to action, or was that wouldn't this? That was your call to action? Okay, okay! Next up we have the pastel Award solicitation Andrew.

R

Thank You Alyssa um I'm, Andrew, Sullivan I'm, the president and CEO of the Internet Society I'm here to talk about the Jonathan B Postell Service Award, which is something that the Internet Society gives out. It was established by the Internet Society to honor the individuals who make the Internet you know the Internet is a profoundly human thing, it's something that depends on people to make it happen, and it affects a lot of people.

R

I never met Jon Postel, but I know him somehow through the work that he did and the legacy he left us, and there are people on the internet who do this for us, they make extraordinary efforts and they give us things. They leave us things behind. So we have this award, it's it's in his name and you know people get a trophy and they get some money, but mostly they're recognized as one of these people.

R

People who have made extraordinary contributions to all of us who give us the the network that we have today now I know sitting here in this room is somebody who belongs on this list or somebody who knows somebody who belongs on this list and so I want you to nominate them.

R

We are very fortunate to have this marvelous tool and we're very fortunate that there are people who work so hard to give it to us. We want people who have given sustained and substantial technical contributions and who also served the community. The nominations are open until the 15th of May and you can go to the URL there on the screen and nominate them thanks a lot.

B

And next we have the ITA f-105 welcome, come on back line.

L

So keep it quick, we're all gonna go to Montreal game who loved Montreal last summer. I did the food was awesome, the weather is great. Let's hope the weather holds as well as it did. Last time was I had a great time. I think I, probably put on five pounds. Does the food was so darn good in Montreal anyways, we're hosting the game? We're gonna have a social, so look for news on that. It should be a lot of fun.

L

I've been up to Montreal planning and we usually have a pretty good time at our social, so I think get a ticket and come to have some fun with us. Thanks.

B

So I wanted to spend a minute here to remember a dearly departed member of our community, professor B Jun, who sadly passed away in February. Far too soon. Many of you knew professor B from his work in the savvy working group and on other topics, including ipv6 and Software Defined Networking from his post at Tsinghua University. He was also a significant contributor to the development of the Internet in China. So please join me in a moment of silence to remember professor Fijian.

B

B

We have a number of members of our community to recognize whose roles will be changing or or otherwise, stepping down from various posts.

B

So first we're going to recognize Eric Rosen, who will be retiring and I'm going to ask Alvaro to come on up to do the recognition.

S

Hi Eric Griffin has been a contributor to the ATF and to the Internet in general, for a very very long time. He has about 60 RFC's that he has published most of them in the routing area. The first one was RC 827. This was where he documented EGP the exterior gateway protocol. This was a protocol that held the internet together before BGP you in existed. I met Eric personally about many many he hears after that that our students published in 1982.

S

But it's how I met him in person. We were both working at Cisco. He had already done very significant contributions to the ATF. He had co-authored our C 30 31, which is the MPLS architecture of RC & 25:47, that's MPLS or BT MPLS VPNs. These two have inspired hundreds of others, RFC's hundreds of working groups and that we still have significant amount of work in the routing area, Eric, which always has been always.

S

My person like me, he's an introvert we're not much into small talk or anything like that when we first met, we sat next to each other or in front of each other looking at each other. Just just like that, before for about 30 seconds, those were probably the longest 30 seconds of my life.

S

He then went on and explained in detail what he was working on. Details is one of the very important characteristics that really highlighted his abilities. He always did very in-depth reviews of drafts. You always started with I have a few comments and then he went deep into what was wrong or what needs to be corrected in the different documents.

S

He always wrote to his to his co-author, saying: oh I, have a few I made a few editorial changes to the document, but he had probably completed rewritten the whole thing he still has about two or three other RCS on the pipeline, so we're looking forward to keep working with him the completion of that work.

S

Unfortunately, he couldn't make it to this ITF, but I want to your help in thanking him for his work, and in wishing him good luck in your time. Thank you. So.

B

Next I'd like to recognize Miriam, whose last name I will never be able to pronounce so I'm, not going to pronounce it.

B

Miriam has been Co, leading our edu team for the past 14 years and, in particular, has put a really strong focus on coordinating and developing the tutorial materials and the tutorials themselves that occur typically on the sunday of the IETF meeting week over the years, her and her day, job at the ripe NCC, even as it has changed and gotten busier and busier and she's gotten more occupied with things that take her further away from the IETF.

B

She has continued to remain dedicated to this task and to donating her time and helping us out to create a program of activities that help new people, understand ITF technologies and processes and everything else that they need to be successful in the nhf. So she's I, don't think, will necessarily never see you again at an IETF meeting. I think she'll be back to the idea, but stepping down from from her role in the edu team. So please join me in thanking Miriam and we have a small gift for you as well.

T

I joined the AG team 14 years ago. I guess you did the math right. It was when Brian Carpenter was the ITF chair for those of you who remember that it's a long time ago, and primarily to start the ITF journal at the time, because I felt that was better to do it within the ITF as-90 effectivity.

T

Now the ITF journal won't be no more and so I decided to step down from the idea team, but no I'm, just kidding I, just felt like, as coincidence, I just feel like I, don't have enough time anymore to put into doing a good job good enough job for the edge' team, so I'm. But thanks for the recognition, it's very kind.

B

I've known for a while this moment was coming and I've been dreading it, as many people know, Jim Martin has been building. Networks for the ITF for 23 years will be stepping down. As of this meeting from his his position as the lead of our NOC Jim is the closest thing that this community has to a real magician, as I said, building networks for 23 years here, and, if you think about this community and the kinds of demands that we put on the network, our propensity to be able to complain about things that don't work.

B

The incredible quality of this network and the incredibly low volume of complaints by comparison. Much of that is, can be attributed to Jim's leadership of the nob. But not only that. Jim is also essentially a magician, because he's capable of going to hotels like this one and convincing them to do things that they definitely should not agree to and in some cases are not even in their own interest.

B

Jim has also done other magic tricks like building a network, even when all of the equipment was lost, but I think perhaps most importantly for this community. He has inspired a team of volunteers to dedicate a tremendous amount of time and energy and resources to the NOC, and that includes entire extra weeks tacked on to the already grueling meeting week.

B

Significant investment, while they're there on the ground extra trips to conduct a site qualification visits, so that we can find out in advance whether we think the venue's will work for us or not and really through his his collaborative and kind spirit, inspired others in our community to donate and to serve and the interests of making the IETF better and and the internet better and and that's a real magic trick. So please join me in saying thank you to Jim.

U

Thank You Alyssa. The truth is you get my name up front, but the truth is it's all kinds of different people behind the scenes. I need to thank all of the equipment, sponsors and link sponsors that have made this possible Cisco and juniper in particular. Juniper just recently gave us a bunch of new routers I want to thank them. I need to thank all the chairs when I started. This fred was the chair and every single chair.

U

All the way along has been helping us make sure this really happens because they actually understand the impact it has on the community. So I really appreciate all that help, and certainly we we have all the folks at AMS in particular, I've gotta say how much I appreciate Laura Nugent, Stephanie, McCammon and Marsha gosh. We miss you Marsha and finally, the team.

U

My team is a really amazing set of people they come and they dedicate weeks of their lives they're here a week before everybody else is, and it's a combination, these days of contractors and volunteers, but it's all through their consistent effort and one working as one team to make sure that what is delivered here both in the guests of both in the meeting space, as well as up in the guest rooms, because well that's what we all keep working all the time and the IETF does. So we want to make sure that that happens.

U

So there's an amazing amount of work and I mean even this time we ended up having to take over all of the wireless in the guest rooms, not just take it over like we usually do, but we had to reconfigure the whole thing so I'm, just so proud of my team, and you know I'm actually also want to thank all of you. I've been here for 25 years, I have seen what we've done as a community to impact the world and, frankly, I can't wait to see you guys do in the next 25.

U

Thank you all very much.

B

So on to our outgoing ISG members, we have four of them this time.

B

First, we have been Campbell who's served for years on the IHG.

B

Ben has a real special place, at least from my perspective as one of the other founders of the art area. There's not very many area directors who can claim to have founded an area so when we merged real time applications and infrastructure and applications about four years ago, Ben was a big part of that transition, which I think has been. He said, my personally completely biased view. A real success in the ietf Ben has also been a true calming force on the IHG I.

B

Think, as everyone knows, the IHG is a perfectly harmonious body on which there's never any discord.

B

Nevertheless, Ben's presence has been particularly useful and critical in times when some some others of us were not not quite getting along as well as we could have. Maybe it's his Southern roots, I'm, not sure, but he's always been been able to kind of bring us back together and show us what's important, he's always been also willing to take the lead on some fairly difficult tasks.

B

Recently, this included handling an appeal response handling other kinds of community discussions about very controversial topics like what does the updates tag mean and I'm really really appreciative for all of that effort. So then, if you could come on up and have a small gift of appreciation for you,.

B

Oh, there is okay and please join me in thanking Ben.

B

People who may not know Ben is an avid sailor and we thought you know we're always talking about which hat do you have on? You have this hat on that hat on, so we figured me, we could get it since your since you're, taking off your ad hat tonight, we figured we'd get you.

B

Next, we have Spencer Dawkins, our outgoing transport area director, so Spencer's been serving on the IHG for six years, he's the longest serving current member of the is G, which means that as he as he departs us, we are losing some of our deepest historical context on the is G which is actually pretty critical, because nobody on the I issue you can ever remember like. Oh, we talked about this exact thing same thing last year, let alone six years ago, but Spencer always has that memory.

B

I think the other really critical thing about Spencer, especially at a time when we're having lots of discussions in the IETF about how do we work together? How do we conduct ourselves? Spencer's really always been a model of I, would say: humility and kindness, not just on the IE, but towards every person that he interacts with is as far as I've seen, and so that's that's really something to look up to. We also have Spencer to thank for one of the working groups, which is most difficult to schedule on the entire ITF agenda.

B

The quick working group, which has a conflict with every other working group and security and transport and applications, and possibly several others like who knows what else as soon as we do bgp over quick we're, also gonna, have that low set of conflicts. So thank.

A

You for that gift, Spencer I.

B

Think, even after you're you're no longer serving you've, you've really drilled it into us that we need to make good choices and do the right thing. So, let's hope we continue to do that. Please join me and Thank You Spencer for all this time.

B

I think this requires no explanation.

B

I'm gonna put it on right now.

V

This is the best t-shirt that anybody has ever gotten I kept eating. It was tough, you know what you know. We took 9 years and it was totally worth it.

B

Next terri mandersohn, our outgoing internet area, director terry, has been serving on the IHC for four years. I think Terry wins the award for most 2:00 a.m. phone calls being based in Australia when Terri joined the IHG we had a conversation about.

B

Do we want to change the time at which we have the is G tell it chats, which are typically earlier in the morning or at least in the in the evening, but not in the middle of the night for the rest of us and Terri graciously said no, it's it's fine I'll, keep him in the middle of the night, so he's been doing that every two weeks for the last four years. Please like buy him a beer.

B

If you see him and although Terry didn't have the the highest number of working groups on his plate, he did have some of the hairiest ones nets.

B

So we also have him to thank for for shepherding some difficult working group discussions in the internet area. So please join me in thanking Terry and come on up.

B

And finally, we have Erica's for love. Is the outgoing security area director who's been serving on the ihd for two years?

B

I think we all know that the sec ad workload can be especially demanding I've sort of expected to review in detail all the drafts, as opposed to the rest of us who just kind of do some more cursory reviews and I think Eric's plate was particularly full, as he was also contributing as a fairly prolific individual contributor in the IETF working on TLS, 1.3, web RTC, acne, quick and so on, and also simultaneously serving as the CTO of Firefox I.

B

Think, if you kind of balance those two things together, what you can make a determination about is that occur, probably had more discusses per hour put in to the IHG than any other ad that that has served in recent memory. So anyone who's actually published a document in the last two years. Can you know give a moment of thanks that he'll be stepping down from the ISU.

B

But we will miss his his detailed reviews as we go forward with our new team. So please join me in thanking Eric for his service on the ihd.

W

You needed one, of course, I did yeah.

A

F

Have no idea actually cuz I didn't find anything but yeah.

G

F

Still be reviewing your documents.

B

Right and then I think I don't know who's thanking the trustee he's Glen. Are you thanking the trustees? I? Don't really want to thank myself.

L

I, don't think I've ever been up and down on stage as many times since today. So you know, hey, there's been a major change happen in the LLC and the ILC we shut, the ifc dad lost beating, but one of the things that always kind of went on along with the IOC was the IDF trust. In fact, one of the rules for being an ITF trustee up until recently was you were on the IOC, and so it is, you know, sort of the be very quiet very well, not well understood.

L

Part of the the whole administrative and Jalapa makes this place run. That is the trust these trustees here are people have put a lot of work in reviewing talking about trademark management, asset management, I Anna, it's not to everybody, especially for hard core engineers, the sexiest stuff, but it's really important not to really thank them for their service. We have blue burger, not Leslie Cooper Jeff Hardy coming Ranger bar the former chair, Andrew Sullivan, who managed actually to be a trustee twice in the same hereby treatment pass.

L

He got selected by the Dom calm and they got the job over at I sock as the CEO I'm president and he's waited resigned from the the IOC I think it we appointed because, of course, the CEO and president of Ison was on the ILC and once he gave me cameras rusty, so he just couldn't leave I got edgy, you might be back again, I'm, not sure we may worked it out somehow and finally, Porsche who's done a great job. Thank you Porsche. So thank you all to the all. The outgoing trustees.

X

So I think all of the outgoing IEP members are friends. So if you could all come up at once, that probably be great will will will do that and then the IAB itself will will join you in a minute. But if you're, an outgoing IV member, why don't you come up now and in a moment the rest of you I? You can can join us for those of you who are looking forward to the IB open mic I remind you that we send our report in email before this.

X

So you don't have to look at it on screen. But if you'd like to look under your laptops, while you're waiting, it's off the IAB website website.

X

And I'll do the thanks in alphabetical order, because there's no really good way of doing it and and first is Allison and Allison. Many people don't actually realize that the a RTF chair, in addition to doing all of the work of the IRT F, is also a non-voting member of the IAB, and that vote isn't really the important part of the ID. We try not to vote very much.

X

What we try and do is come to consensus around different topics and the IRT F chair and in particular Allison has been a wonderful influence on us, as we've considered some of the matters before us. It's a hard job and it's a job which comes with other jobs, and we really want to thank Allison for her time, not just as IRT f chair, but as a member of the IEP.

X

Don't don't tell people what's in it just yet, because you're all gonna get them out at once so Gabriel Montenegro joined the IB in 2017 and in addition to his general contribution, he served on the plenary planning program, the stack evolution program, the ename workshop and a shepherd of some of our critical liaisons, such as the european ICT platforms group. Thank you very much.

X

Roberts joined in 2015 and, in addition to his contributions to the general work of the idea, he was the IAB publications stream manager. He served as an on combination served as a liaison to the ASG worked on the IV's response to the FCC inquiries on stir and shaken, served on the stack evolution program and that bub and beyond that he focused himself on the RFC editor. He was in addition to being the stream manager.

X

He led the search for the new ISE and served on the our Sauk, although we have to confess that we kind of poached him he was on the are sock before he joined the IAB. Thank you very much. Robert.

X

Suzanne hates going last, but that's just the luck of the draw she joined in 2015 as well. In addition to her contribution to the general work of the ID, she served on the protec program, the plenary planning program, the concluded internationalization and the identifiers programs and as an isg liaison, and she was Shepherd for any number of ICANN related processes. Basically, if you want to think about I, can she did the work on that she was a joint lead of the ANA program. She was the Shepherd for the ICANN NomCom search.

X

She led the ICANN board of directors liaison search. She led the our search search and she managed the liaison relationship with the our sac, so she basically kept ICANN at bay for the entirety of the rest of the IAB, and for that and many other things we thanked.

X

So if you would get out the gifts now to show people, baguettes are basically a very small token of the fact that we will always treat you as reserved IAB members, helping to make the internet better more resilient and more available to the world, even as the gifts will show if we need to reboot it from scratch, because these are copies of a very wonderful book of the Victorian internet and a set of telegraph keys. Just in case. We need to go all the way back.

X

Thanks to each and every one of you.

X

And now, if I could ask the rest of the IAB to join us for the open microphone session, I know there was one person who had a question for Heather. Heather joins us as well during the course of this. So if that person I think you have priority in line, if you want to get back in line we'll try and have you go first.

B

So logistical note for people coming up onto the stage only two of the table mics can be on at any one time. So if yours isn't working, someone else needs to turn theirs off.

X

Okay, while we wait for the the lines to populate, why don't we start with introductions Jen Ben? Could you begin introduce yourself, John pin.

Y

Okay to me, Andy, it's my first time to take the IB member I am from another hobby I'm, either join the inside here, the scenes of the 2009 and until now there's ten years unlucky and it will work for the community and contribute more to the IDF Thanks. I Stephenville fairly fresh RB.

X

So if that's all you wanted to know, we can stop here. Otherwise, please get up to the yeah.

Z

I wasn't the one who was up to the mic before, but I do have a question for Heather I'm on set I. You mentioned this a3 software that you need. That seems to be hard to get a hold of, and it surprised me at first that we would use such a thing. I did some quick reading because I hadn't heard of it before it sounds to me like this is necessary to support the SVG import is. Can you clarify that.

J

So there, the short answer is to look at one of the RFC, seven, nine, five or four, or something like that. The PDF requirements for the new format. What I'm looking for is a format that was designed for archiving and one of our requirements. Event archiving is that the XML must be included in the document so that it's a completely self-contained PDF file. That inclusion of the XML takes it just from PDF a1 to a PDF a3 right.

Z

Okay and finding.

J

Software that can do that was very hard right.

Z

I

Hello, I'm, Julia, scrubber check and I came earlier to ask a technical question and you didn't want to take it and I'm, not bitter.

I

Mathematical formulas: oh that's.

J

A good question: um that's something: I was talking to Henrik about earlier right now we're looking at people that would want to do a mathematical formulas putting it in like the NS VG image, we've talked about using math and math ml that doesn't I participate in the w3 C's publishing working group, and there seems to be a lot of kind of controversy about how to put mathematical equations in web documents, for example, and some recommend mathjax some recommend math I'm not actually sure what would be the right solution for us.

J

If you have some ideas, could you come talk to me later? Okay,.

I

Now I'm bitter okay.

Y

F

Hi Richard burns I'm gonna do you know continue the RFC editor love here, so I've been checking out some of the reports. You know that you guys produce fare periodically on the performance of the RPC noticing that you guys have been in the kind of lower categories of SLA performance recently, so I'm just wondering what the plan is for remediation there and coming back into compliance for the SaaS very.

J

Good question so in 2016, or so we recognized that there was going to be a problem when we hit the format transition, because we were going to be doing so much more than just editing documents. We were going to be writing new procedures. We were going to be doing additional training. We were going to be learning a whole new, XML really, and so we had requested through that.

J

We had told the IOC at the time that this was going to take up to three point: two five FTE to actually stay ahead of that particular curve and the response at the time was we don't have money to give you three point two five FTE, but you you know we can talk about one okay, we held off bringing in that one until we were closer to the to the transition that one person has been added and has been very helpful, but as we expected, this isn't really enough to put us ahead of the curve.

J

Now one of the things I didn't do that I, probably should have, was so that was 2016 2017. This is now 2019 should I have gone back to the well and said: hey, you know. We told you this. This is what you said you could do then has anything changed that that I did not do so we're working at at a difficulty right now. So do you have an ETA on when we should expect to see green again, um probably towards the end of this year?.

AD

Just Kathleen Moriarty just to follow up on that. What can we, as a community, do when we are when we have active documents in the RFC editor queue to help or before that, the.

J

The single best thing that the community could do the document shepherds could do in the working group chairs can do is never never say. Oh, the RFC editor will just fix that.

J

I have heard that actually many many times where people said yeah. We knew that was a problem, but we figured you would just fix that you'll you'll just fix the references. You'll just fix this particular table. We know it's a bad table, but you'll just fix it, the less we have to just fix the formatting and you know fix the content that way the better things will go. I.

X

See no one else at the microphones, so I think maybe it's time to call the iesg up. Tuesday oops are the LLC board.

I thought the routing architecture session this afternoon was excellent, very useful, and it was clearly a really good idea to hold it during the week as opposed to in the usual Sunday tutorial slot. So well done. Thank you.

B

Thank you and thank you to everyone.

B

AJ

Yo Cydonia so I'm happy to join ite in person. Again last time, I joined IETF remotely and during the IETF meeting Gareth a lot side meeting that was I, see the I think I was very exciting, but I couldn't participate remotely because no audio or video equipment in the side meeting room so I hope to give opportunity to for the remote participants to join side meeting.

B

Okay, so just a couple of a couple of responses on that: it's not you're, not the only person who has expressed this to us there's a few reasons why we could don't currently provide remote participation for side meetings. One is that we're doing an experiment with side meetings? I didn't talk about it in the plenary deck because it's been going on for some time, but you can read more about it in our pre-meeting report and part of the thinking with why we are not supporting remote participation in the side.

B

Meetings was that we were trying to clarify some of the distinctions between what is an official sanctioned IETF activity on the ITF agenda, with full support versus what is organized activity by the community itself. We had we've had some issues in the past with fusion around. What's a real buff, and if people just organize a side meeting that looks enough like a buff, then they start to tell people that they had a buff and- and that was creating some some difficulty for us.

B

So that's part of the reason why we make the rooms available because we have the space, but we don't otherwise provide other kinds of support for those meetings.

B

The other issue is just the contention for me to echo we've you know signed up for a certain level of support with them and and there's many many rooms in which they are providing an amazing service to us, and so adding rooms comes factors into the the kind of service that we can get not to say it's not possible, but just that that's another factor that we take into consideration.

AE

So I'll just make a comment on the first reason for that I think we should not punish the remote participants to make that point.

AK

Parvati's I've reviewed a number of documents that were related to yang modeling and I found that often people put values that are in IANA registries into RFC documents, and so you get these incomplete or obsoleted entries of yang values in RFC's. Well, they should really be pointers to the the proper IANA registries. So I think it would be good if there's some some stearing happening across the working groups to make sure that we don't produce those those documents in that way.

D

So speaking of the work related to yang modeling, and especially the coordination between the work on the separate technology components for models- yes, that's an area that is lacking, and this is something that is certainly on my focus and we probably will see something more tangible happening across the coordination of the model development soon so from from a public perspective. This is understood, and there are items to try to address that. This probably will not be a very quick and simple fix, but at least does work on one in that direction.

AL

Hi Alysa Eliot here we had a really good side meeting on IOT onboarding today and I want to thank Taurus and Kent and a few others for really helping us to try and at least document what we're doing what what is available in terms of capabilities for IOT onboarding, particularly for wireless and I, and the arm a side meeting mechanism has been particularly useful for me for a number of ways. One comment that I did want to pass to the is G and I suspect.

AL

Other community members had this problem too, which is we really did all pile it on today, and it was hard to get to everything we wanted to get to so I'm, not sure how to judge the Wednesday experiment based on that, but it was pretty packed and you sort of had to zig and zag from room to room to get to what you wanted to do.

B

AC

I first off I want to thank all of the outgoing ATS I appreciate your service. You do an immense amount of work to those that are coming in I. Wish you good luck.

AC

Elisa I'd like to thank you for whatever you've done behind the scenes to improve the demeanor of meetings and the IETF work that has been done this week compared to the past two or three or four meetings.

AC

The working group meetings have been much more amenable and a lot more friendly and an open, so whatever you have done, or whatever the isg has done behind the scenes would really like to thank you because, as I commented in Bangkok some other meetings over the past couple, you know four or five sessions have been pretty vile, but this week so far has been really great and even though there's been some, you know level of disagreement as there always will be I think everybody has been very open and more open-minded.

AC

So whatever you're doing, please continue, but I think you for that. I do have a question. I would like to know what your plans are to drive growth in the IETF in the form of attracting new people to come in and work on existing work products and then also to get people to come to the IETF with their work and have it be done here versus choosing another SDO. Thank you.

B

Thanks, so just on the on the first bit, you know, I talked a little bit about the things that that we've done in the IHG since 103, but I would say that part of raising awareness is just creating a conversation in the community about some of these issues. So I would turn that back on you and others who raised the issue to us at the last meeting and have been continuing to engage on the topic of conduct and behavior and how we work together, because I think that's actually probably the most influence.

B

Thus far is just that people are talking about it they're more aware of it, they're more cognizant of it when they go to the microphone or when they kick off a working group session, and so I think we're starting to see the effects of that. As far as growth.

B

I'm sorry, the first part sure I.

AA

Didn't mean to interrupt you though I'm Wes Hart occur, the ietf guides lead, went up to and I have to say that the number of positive compliments I've gotten from newcomers that come to this organization and get help either through the guides program or just people. You know walking them through the process.

AA

It makes all the difference in the world and I think that that will see much greater retention if everybody's willing to reach out to people with a badge and see how they're doing- and you know this is a really confusing organization to get started in and so I encourage everybody to really participate and if you're able to be a guide, it doesn't take a whole lot of time to to interact with somebody and you meet them once on Sunday and maybe once later in the week and interact over email a little bit and it makes all the difference in the world.

AA

So please consider that that's one of the best things we can do. Thank.

B

You and thank you for your time that you put into that Wes.

V

If I could yeah, if I could just respond to that a little bit, so it seems like to me that there's two things that are helpful. One is that when people do come here that we don't scare them away and the numbers for first-time attendees are kind of amazing, you know they're, you know like well we'll see 150 250 people, people who are first-time attendees in a meeting, but we're not growing by a hundred people.

V

You know or a hundred people meeting you know so like people come, you know so for people who and I'm not talking like now, I'm talking like over the past 40 years, that you know, we've always had 417 these and frankly, a lot of them kind of bounced off and I. Think that we have made an awful lot of changes to make it easier for people to come in here and at least get their feet on the ground and understand.

V

What's going on understanding what we do, understanding how we do it, the other, so you know step, one is don't scare them away and number two is help me help make it easier for them to get stuff done, that they need to get done, and the ISP and the community together have done an awful lot to come up with ways for people to find each other for people to have conversations with each other.

V

You know whether it's where there is the the side meeting experiment that turned into another experiment or whether it was how to RFC. That was an experiment that sounds like it's about to not be an experiment, but just anything that we can do to help people find each other and have conversations with each other I'm I'm holding my first brainstorming session that I announced at I/o RFC of tomorrow- and you know it's like I've, just been too busy as an area treasure, but hey I used to be an area director right.

V

So you know so I'm really excited about that. But just well. You know watching what other people have been able to do with it. Putting putting groups together to talk and- and you know, explore ideas and kind of triage what they, what their interests are and say, how could we cooperate?

V

I think that you know that that's really been important too and the you know the two things I'd say about that or you know that's a lot of that stuff is pretty new and a lot of it was done, and you know, interaction with the community. It wasn't like the IHG, went off into a cave and came back out with this brilliant plan, so I think you know. You'll deserve a puppy hand on that as well. Thank you all for the work that you do so.

AG

A couple of points from my point of view is that when we will talk about the tone of the meetings, there's a fantastic line that pretty much says the culture you have is based on the behaviors. You condone now that sits on everyone's shoulders. It sits on our shoulders and it sits on your shoulders, so think deeply about that in the meetings in the working group meetings in the efforts that you undertake within the IETF.

AG

What my second point is that, and this kind of harks back to one of one of something my professor told me as a as a post grad- was that you're no longer the customer, you are the product and as the product you're the key to the network, and it's not just that the network of on building routers and things like that. It's a network of people, so each and every one of you are the part of the network.

AG

So go back to your organization and if you want to build the IETF, go back to your organization and pick that junior engineer pick that junior developer and drag them along to the IETF facilitate them coming here. Facilitate them learning, facilitate them, contributing and bringing them into this culture and adjusting that the growth of the IETF.

B

Just a little bit on the question about growth, I think it's important to remember that, in terms of sheer numbers of people we're not trying to maximize that value right, we even actually have a census. Rfc 2b, which says that maximizing attendance at the meetings is not a goal and that's important because it keeps us focused on what the goal actually is, which is you know, facilitating interoperability and developing the technologies that are going to make the internet work better.

B

That often means bringing in new people new ideas, but it doesn't necessarily mean bringing in more people as as the objective I think. There are some specific things that that this sort of outgoing is. She has been doing to try to foster more engagement from particular communities.

B

We've had a number of us and other people in the community that we've engaged with to reach out to some of the operators groups, the some of the rars I think we've had a particular help from the IRT F side and RW & A &, R P, bringing in a whole new batches of folks from the academic research communities. Just been a great effort and other kind of smaller engagements, so some people know that the net dev conference was here.

B

Last week we had some cross-pollination with the Linux kernel developers there, a number of us were there in attendance and gave talks and so on. So obviously people up here we're you know we're all volunteers too, we don't have unlimited budgets for outreach. Nor do we have unlimited time, but we've been trying to do some targeted efforts to talk to particular communities where we think that the engagement could be better, that we could derive more value from them and they from us. So that's one kind of smaller thing that we've been doing as well.

A

AH

Yong-Ho I just saw my personal suggestion, so I can will open her new gTLD application soon I'm. What I'm wondering is the ITF or RC can be applied as a new gTLD, for example, I have a have probably RC I have maybe apply I'll say to Todai CFO, as as my tummy name, everyone can check my tummy name of C member itea for chagum a night FC FC contender, also some company, for example Cisco or for my company cynical or some Microsoft ITF. They can check out any me.

AH

I have related a workout by the company, so also I. Think there's two benefits for the pending faces: they we can easily identify the the work. Also social FC is more easily. So second icing is: we can increase the revenue over ietf because when I first joined idea for a runner to say 2000-2005 that her so a registration fee is fire around 500, the US dollar. Now a protester already taboo around 1000, a US dollar I. Think if we have our idea of annuity tod selling tommy name, so we can maybe we net.

AH

We never needed increase the registry fee against. Thank you.

X

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I want to point out to two things very quickly. One is that the internet society, which of course has been a is our corporate home and a longtime donor to the ITF activity, also has another body in it. Pir the Public Interest registry I think it might be a little bit confusing for the ITF to go into the business of one of the other subsidiaries of of ice up and furthered the actual string ITF as a reserve string.

X

There were when Anna took up the task of opening the gTLD process. There were a number of particular strings which were reserved because they were in used by the technical community and ITF is one of those strings, so it cannot be applied for as a gTLD.

I

Julia scrubber check, so thank you very much for you from the for what you are saying earlier. I'm actually part of the underpaid working-class minority were mentioning academia and so I in fairly active over the line. I think I've been fairly active over the last year's at IETF. I have my name on six or seven drafts, of which four are in the last stages of publication.

I

That's been four years of very hard work which I'm very glad for and when I realized a few years ago, that I was going to get involved and that I was going to have to come fairly regularly at ITF I actually had to ask for extra funding. So that's an additional stepping stone if you want to get involved to the ATF by academic criteria, the ITF meetings are very expensive, and so, if you are thinking about outreach, perhaps you might consider something I.

I

Think many of you are aware that the fee structure of ITF meetings is not necessarily adapted to academia.

B

Thank you. So this is not the body that sets the fee structure, but I think all of those people are probably still here in the room and heard that so it's something that has been discussed before and we can certainly take the feedback into account.

B

We have any other questions from the floor.

AB

Yes, I know today, so I would like to wake who the previous speaker, I'm from from the industry and I, spoke to a couple of enterprise customers recently and it's not better for them.

AB

What is difficult for the academia I understand, but for the enterprise people who are not here by the way I'm not talking about the vendors, the telcos and your the bodies, but who is from finance sector here from energy sector here from other verticals very few, and they don't come first of all, they don't know about IDF and if they would know for them to justify sending people regularly out of production, what they have to do extremely difficult.

AB

So I don't have a good answer, I'm sure it's not a new problem, but does not seem we are converging and the problem is is then it was an issue of represented representation who we mean when we say the community who are we I, don't know, I, don't think it's actually a correct representation of what the real constituencies of those objects connected. Those people organization, part of the network- many are not here. So are we missing some feedback? Loop from from some people, thank you thank.

B

You certainly appreciate your comments. I think it isn't I totally agree with you they're, not not. Everybody is here, and that is actually part in part by design right. So there's a lot of work that we do, that can be done entirely remotely and we really encourage that in the IETF, and that applies equally to people who don't want to show up in person and and also you know, fortunately or unfortunately, people who can't afford to come so I think it's. It's really important to remember. To reinforce that. You know.

B

Most of our working group chairs do a good job of reinforcing that decisions get made on the mailing list and so on, but we all need to remember that that's a way, a path of engagement and participation in the IETF, the heavily used more so than attendance. At the end person meetings, hello,.

AM

I'm Watson I want to thank you all for the work, hard work you do and I was like to say that remote participation can get valuable things done. This is the first time I've been to an IEEE ATF meeting. I came here. Many people are like. Oh, you exist. They know me for videos. They know me from contributions of drafts. I just want to thank you for making it possible to do that. It's really been a tremendous. It really is a big achievement. Thank.

B

You thank you. That is exactly the reaction I had when I saw your badge.

A

AE

And you're, not alone I've met several people who I've known for quite a while on the mailing lists and I'm glad to see that some were able to come to this meeting. I hope many of you can come back, but even if you can't, we value your participation on the lists.

B

Anybody else, okay, thank you.

A
