RE: Draft EOS minutes

Title: Draft EOS minutes

Just to be sure. I my comments were basically meant to say:

- The WG seem very inactive. Many todo items keep on the todo list

and not much (if anything) happens on the mailing list.

If that continues, then such work items that get no follow up and that

get no discussion on the list will be removed from the charter.

- The WG (when looking at protocol operations) can try to define some

work items that would be complimentary to the SMIng work. It may

mean some changes/clarifications to the WG charter, and I am

willing to entertain the justification discussion and then defend it

in the IESG

- The WG should not try to address the "bigger picture" in the sense

of the operator comments on "what to do for config management"

"what to do with the xmlConfig discussions" and such.

ADs want to see proper operator rquirements in this space, and if

needed, another WG may be formed. But the EOS WG is not there

revolutionize NM. That would be a separate effort.

- For the WG to continue to exist, the ADs want to see some action

on the WG mailing list and contributions that get serious discussion

and evaluation. The proposal to have docs submitted by Sep 15 and

to see serious WG interest in the form of technical discussions is

a pre-req in order to even consider continuation and/or extending

the charter of this WG.

Hope this helps to clarify the AD position.
