Sorry, I'm confused. To whom are potential CoIs being disclosed
in the above situation?
[JL] Good input and questions, Stephen. The current CoIs were filled out somewhat hastily at the last IETF meeting when the new board was seated. We felt it would be an oversight if we did not have them, but they were meant IMO mainly as a temporary measure until such time as we determined what our overall policies should be for conflicts of interest and a broad range of other stuff listed in the IASA2 WG docs (including the LLC formation agreement). On May 7 and 8 we have a F2F meeting where we're discussing what we want for each of these policies (the IETF community will be consulted at these begin taking shape), which will include the long-term conflict of interest policy. This will necessarily include consideration of how/what to make public. As I noted, as that and other policies begin to take shape following that May meeting, the IETF community will be asked for comment. The discussion here is helpful input to that process - and stay tuned for more on policies from the IETF LLC Board in May.
Thanks
Jason (as IETF LLC chair)
