- Discussions/Reports
-
-
- 1. Report on the RARE WG3 meetings held in Zurich, Switzerland.
- Reported by Joyce K. Reynolds.
- The RARE WG3 USIS Working Group and the IETF User Services Working
- Group are working in parallel. Jill Foster, Chair of USIS,
- concurs. The RARE WG3 Working Group provides first level services
- to end users. The IETF User Services Working Group have
- traditionally provided second level services (i.e., providing
- documentation to people who provide services to end users). RARE
- WG3 will continue to provide first level services, while IETF User
- Services will provide ``information packets'' and other user
- services documentation. RARE will delegate their members to
- actively work on IETF working groups.
- 2. Revision of User-Doc Working Group - Presented by Lenore Jackson &
- Ellen Hoffman, User-Doc Co-chairs.
- Discussion focused on the revision of its charter, establishing
- procedures on updating the bibliography, additional objectives, and
- future goals.
- 3. QUAIL - presented by Gary Malkin.
- Brief discussion and comments of an updated Quail document for
- ``new Internet users''. The updating of this document is necessary
- due to the transition of DDN NIC services from SRI to GSI. The
- current structure/formatting of the document was also discussed.
- 4. SIGUCCS draft - Martyne Hallgren. Written by ACM Siguccs
- Networking Taskforce.
- Martyne's taskforce intends to submit this draft into the
-
- 1
-
-
-
-
-
- ``Internet-Drafts'' process, with the end result being an FYI/RFC.
- She brought this document into the USWG forum for comments and
- feedback.
- Document title - ``Connecting to the Internet - what connecting
- institutions should anticipate''
- Abstract: This memo outlines the major issues an institution
- should consider in the decision and implementation of a campus
- connection to the Internet. The list of issues is not exhaustive
- but rather this document should alert decision makers to major
- concerns to be addressed in the critical phases of an institution's
- full participation in the Internet community.
- Martyne received positive comments on this draft. This draft is
- akin to the "INCH" task on the USWG list of "things to do".
