CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_ Reported by Robert Stine/SPARTA and Robert Enger/Contel MINUTES At this meeting, Bob Stine briefed the working group on the status of the NOCTools Catalog, and identified several issues concerning dissemination of the catalog, and production of the second edition. Representatives of Sun Microsystems objected to the text of the YP/DNS discussion in the tutorial section. While they offered to assist in the re-write, time constraints resulted in Bob Stine doing the job alone. The catalog will be published as an RFC in early March. The delay is to allow the draft to remain frozen, though subject to critique, for a respectable period of time. During this period, typos and other minor glitches will be quietly corrected. Among the issues for the second edition are a few improvements to the tool description format, refinement of keywords, and improved record keeping on both entry sources and the solicitations that have been made for catalog submissions. Representatives from CMU have requested that some of their catalog entries be updated; new text is expected from them for the second edition. Following the meeting, Steve Crocker, Dave Crocker, and co-chairs Bob Enger and Bob Stine decided that responsibility for disseminating the catalog could be assumed by DAWG, and that production of a new catalog could be handled by a new working group, when needed. At the closing plenary, Dave Crocker (head of the IETF Network Management Area), announced the disbanding of the NOCTools Working Group. In short, we declared victory and quit. Bob Stine will remain as the interim editor, until the formation of a working group to produce the second edition of the catalog. 1 ATTENDEES Armstrong, Karen armstrong@sds.sdsc.edu Aronson, Cathy cja@merit.edu Bowers, Karen L. kbowers@nri.reston.va.us Brunner, Ted tob@thumper.bellcore.com Crocker, Dave dcrocker@nsl.dec.com Enger, Robert enger@sccgate.scc.com Gerich, Elise epg@merit.edu Hahn, Jack hahn@umd5.umd.edu Hays, Ken hays@scri1.scri.fsu.edu Jordt, Dan danj@cac.washington.edu Malkin, Gary gmalkin@proteon.com Moore, Berlin prepnet@andrew.cmu.edu Morris, Don morris@ucar.edu Pace, Donald pace@fsu1.cc.fsu.edu Pokorney, Dave poke@nervm.nerdc.ufl.edu Reynolds, Joyce jkrey@venera.isi.edu Roubicek, Karen roubicek@nnsc.nsf.net Saperia, Jon saperia%tcpjon@decwrl.dec.com Smith, Pat psmith@merit.edu St. Johns, Mike stjohns@umd5.umd.edu Stahl, Mary stahl@nisc.sri.com Throop, Dean throop@dg-rtp.dg.com Waldbusser, Steve sw01@andrew.cmu.edu Ward, Carol cward@spot.colorado.edu Wobus, John M. jmwobus@suvm.acs.syr.edu Yuan, Aileen aileen@gateway.mitre.org Zimmerman, David dpz@convex.com 2
