Minutes Bob moved, and Russ seconded a motion to approve the 2013-04-18 as modified on the list. Without objection, the minutes were approved. 2. South America As of this date the survey had 642 responses, which is more
than any other survey we have done and above 50% of the
number of people who usually attend an
IETF meeting. The unfiltered data has 3/4ths of people who responded said they were likely or very likely to attend. There are a high proportion of the people who are from South America. Filtered for active participants such as Authors, WG Chairs, members of the IAOC or IESG then you still end up with a pretty high number of those and there were about 26 people from the general region, which is consistence with the regional attendance numbers we’ve been tracking. It looks like more people would attend South America than would attend Yokohama. From the numbers it’s clear we’d have a good number of participants. This eliminates all reasons not to go. Then we get into some of the issues that were raised and the first of those was if the goal is to increase diversity then it’s not sufficient to have a single IETFF meeting. That’s correct. We are in discussions with ISOC to see if it's willing to support events in South America. That will need to be announced as part of the IAOC’s response to the Community. That should resolve a lot of that issue. Ole added we should consider two things – some info about when the IAOC thinks this will happen and related to that is perhaps the question of how often we might, thinking about going to that part of the world, we’re at the stage of considering this as a one-off. The IAOC should have some statement about the anticipated frequency. Lynn will send a summary of the events and meetings that ISOC will sponsor in the region. It would be a mix of increasing the IETF fellows from the region and a series of local meetings about IETF technologies, deployment approaches, general information on how the IETF works, and how to participate. We should think about how this might be measured in terms of whether participation was increased. Ray stated he hoped the IAOC could reach a decision selecting a venue before Berlin to keep the 3 Year Venue Selection Plan on track. We know that there will be good attendance at a meeting in Buenos Aires and that most active participants will attend. Or at least at a similar rate as they attend other IETF meetings. 3. Berlin Update Registered: 414 Paid registrations trending above all recent meetings. 1st IETF: 94 Gender: Declined: 71 17% 102 Attending Applying IP Flow Information Export (IPFIX) to Network Measurement and Management 90 Attending Multipath TCP Ray identified the Sponsors for the Meeting. NOC - In work Bits-N-Bites - ISOC, so far. Others pending. Still light with regard to the NOC – about $150k short there. There are a number of folks in work for Bits-N-Bites. John, Drew and Emma are pursuing several pending sponsors. The target for Bits-N-Bites was $75k. There are no executed MoUs on Bits-N-Bites as yet. Bob raised some concern that the IAOC is behind with the rest of the sponsorship for Berlin and it looked like Bits-N-Bites isn’t meeting its numbers – trying to raise visibility – and hasn’t heard back so he’s a bit concerned that the IAOC isn’t going to make the numbers. Jari will reach out to Drew regarding a company. Lynn will follow up for a general update on the next two meetings. Discussions between the senior tech person and Jim Martin at the InterContinental hotel have been had. The end result will be a normal IETF guest room network. This is a good thing. The InterContinental was more than agreeable. There’s language in the contract that speaks to this, but Jim has to make them comfortable. Deutsch Telecom is providing the circuits. DENIC is hosting the Social at the German Museum of Technology, will be 500 tickets, an attendee and one guest limit, for $30 USD. Looks like a great venue. 4. Goals and Retreat Action Timeline 2013 IAOC Goals Update The IAOC goals are located online at: http://iaoc.ietf.org/documents/2013-IAOC-Goals.pdf 1. The Subcommittee is working with AMS to move the IETF servers to a CoLo. Bob expects things to move faster now with some questions answered. 2. Ray is preparing some introductory materials for the IAOC website makeover and then it will be complete enough to submit back to the Committee for review. AMS has begun work on the Trust site modeled after changes to the IAOC site. No changes have been made to the IAOC private wiki. 3. The IAOC needs to take action this year to issue RFPs or extend existing contracts. During the Budget adoption process last year it was concluded that funding for transitions to new vendors would not be needed as all contractors were performing at a level warranting extensions. The IAOC has approved extending the Legal Services contract with Contreras Legal Strategy LLC. The RFC Production Center and RFC Publisher are under consideration by the IAOC Selection Committee chaired by the RFC Series Editor and consisting of two members each of the RSOC and IAOC, plus the IAD. The RFC Series Editor contract is under RSOC review in Berlin. The Secretariat contract is going to the IAOC RFP committee. 4. The IAOC, responding to community suggestions, is considering possibly locating an IETF meeting in South America. 5. The Tools Management Committee is overseeing completion of NomCom Tools, Agenda Scheduling Tool, and Mail Search and Archive Tool. The TMC has for action to develop a plan to update the IETF and RFC-Editor tools to take advantage of the new server redundancy and begin implementation. 6. A Statement of Work is being developed for RFC Format Tool(s) by RSOC for the TMC to provide input on. RSOC is reviewing suggestions from Heather regarding what the statement of work should be. 7. Transition to a new Datatracker Project Manager is mostly completed. 8. The RPS Chair, Bernard Abbo is leading an effort to evaluate Jitsi and coordinate Meetecho experiments in Berlin. 9. The IAOC wants to explore additional revenue to support the IETF. At this point the effort is not formally organized, although initiative is underway. Jari questioned the goal. Is this about creating completely new initiatives? It appears to be additional revenue streams. This should be formalized. In the pastit was formalized between individuals and it would be useful to set this up as a Committee with a charter. Lynn would be happy to help and be on the Committee. At the IAOC's retreat, the IAOC discussed with Lynn St.Amour about having an ISOC senior staff member participate in the IAOC as a guest to help with the upcoming ISOC CEO transition and concluded it this was a good idea. Lynn announced that Leslie Daigle would be the ISOC guest. Bob and Jari are also interested. Lynn said that in the past the IAOC did some studies that looked at where the value is from the IETF’s work. A lot of different approaches were taken and maybe the IAOC can dust of some of those approaches that would result in financial support of the IETF. Chris volunteered for the committee. Ray then reported on the status of the IAD goals for 2013 concerning contractor performance, tools development, community communications and non-deadline tasks.
