[6bone] 6bone transitions planning BOF in San Francisco

[Bob Fink]

6bone Folk,

Looks like we are on the official agenda for a one hour 6bone transition 
planning BOF on Tuesday, March 18, 1700-1800 Afternoon Sessions IV.

Note that we are somewhat constrained to the agenda below as the 6bone 
doesn't fit the IETF model for a BOF unless there is some new activity. 
I.e., we aren't being given this hour to discuss operational problems, 
changes to our operating procedures, etc., rather to discuss the plan for 
our transitions.

The agenda I provided to the IESG for approval, and the one that was 
accepted, is:

BOF FULL NAME: 6bone Transitions Planning (6bone)

AREA: Operations - Randy Bush

CHAIR: Jordi Palet Martinez <jordi.palet@consulintel.es>

FULL DESCRIPTION:

The 6bone, the IPv6 testbed network developed under the aegis of the IETF 
in 1996, is now discussing two important transition topics that need to be 
discussed further in a session at IETF-56. The transfer of 6bone address 
management responsibilities to RIRs has been under discussion during 2002 
and there now needs to be some closure on the topic. An open meeting at 
IETF-56 will facilitate this.  Also, the planning for the phaseout of the 
6bone started in January 2003 and thus needs its first open discussion at 
IETF-56.

AGENDA:

Status and discussion of the proposal for the "transfer of 6bone address 
management responsibilities to RIRs" - Bob Fink and appropriate RIR folk, 
30 minutes

Discussion of the 6bone phaseout plan - 20 mins

My thanks to Jordi for chairing and Bob Hinden for presenting on phaseout 
planning as the IESG wanted me to not be the chair and the only speaker.



Thanks,

Bob
