Hi, The point where the IAB is more directly involved in reviewing of new work is the BoF coordination call as well as acting as BoF shepherds and by providing BoF reports. I believe most members of the IAB are actively monitoring new chartering work. At least I can definitely confirm that I and our IESG liaison are aware of all charter discussions. Mirja > On 8.

I'm not sure why you may think this is especially needed in this case given meeting planning lies in responsibility of the IESG (or LCC with respect to financial and contractual aspects) > ? > > The theory is that IAB advises the IESG on the chartering of new working groups. I don't know how it works in practice as I did enquired about it until a week or so ago. The point of the question was to ascertain that the IAB is aware of the proposed charter. > > Regards, > S.
