Hate to be picky, but we have a formal rule about this. BCP25 says:
All working group sessions (including those held outside of the IETF
meetings) shall be reported by making minutes available. These
minutes should include the agenda for the session, an account of the
discussion including any decisions made, and a list of attendees. The
Working Group Chair is responsible for insuring that session minutes
are written and distributed, though the actual task may be performed
by someone designated by the Working Group Chair. The minutes shall
be submitted in printable ASCII text for publication in the IETF
Proceedings, and for posting in the IETF Directories and are to be
sent to: minutes@xxxxxxxx
So, if a WG Chair follows the rules, whoever handles
minutes@xxxxxxxxwill presumably take care of posting the minutes to the tracker.
(And they will be in "printable ASCII".)
If we want to update BCP25 to replace that with "are to be posted
to the datatracker" that would be fine (but would require IETF
consensus). We could even allow UTF-8 ;-).
Just another respect in which our basic process BCPs are out of step
with reality.

Brian

Hi all,
The IESG has made a small update to its statement on "Guidance on Face-to-Face and Virtual Interim Meetings:” <https://www7.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/interim-meetings-guidance-2016-01-16/>. Meeting minutes and attendance lists from virtual interim meetings are now required to be made available in the datatracker. Previously, posting these materials to the WG mailing list was required but posting to the datatracker was optional. WG chairs can upload meeting materials directly using the datatracker interface or by emailing them to proceedings@xxxxxxxx <mailto:proceedings@xxxxxxxx>.
Best,
Alissa Cooper
IETF Chair
