This report is sent out before IETF-96 begins, in an effort to reduce reporting at the plenary and to provide an ability to discuss topics on list beforehand and afterwards. This reporting style follows what IAB has adopted in recent times; the plan is to provide only a brief summary in the in-person presentation at the plenary. https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/96/slides/slides-96-ietf-plenary-0.pdf Jari Arkko, as chair and for the IESG P.S. If you have topics that you think the IESG should discuss or report on (or should already have), please send mail.
