Based on the ongoing discussions of the core documents on the WG list, and in the hopes that this will encourage more discussion and more progress on these gating items, the LISP WG chairs, with the concurrence of our area director, have decided to hold a LISP WG Interim meeting. The meeting will be held October 3 and 4, 2013 in Herndon, VA. We will start about 10am on the 3rd, and aim to finish by 3pm on the 4th so as to give at least some folks travel flexibility. The primary focus of the meeting will be a detailed and thorough review of the then-latest versions of http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-introduction/ and http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-perspective/ If time permits, and a revision has been submitted, we will also discuss http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lisp-threats/ We also hope to discuss what should be done with http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-saucez-lisp-impact/ as this is also a gating item on our charter. The hope is that the on-list discussions and this interim will allow us to progress these gating items. Webex will be provided along with jabber to enable some degree of remote participation. Details on location and webex will be provided closer to the meeting. Yours, Joel Halpern and Terry Manderson LISP WG Chairs
