Freshly minted, with relatively minor changes since last time:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-aipref-vocab-07
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-aipref-attach-05

Changes of note include the updated Section 3.2 and AI Training sections.  I also took the time to remove mentions of usage category hierarchies, now that we have more clarity about the flat arrangement.

There are more changes to the attachment this time, which are mostly to address drift in the vocabulary document.  If we're very good, we might get into discussions about that.

My understanding is that our issues list is up to date, so new participants can see which issues are already tracked:

https://github.com/ietf-wg-aipref/drafts/issues

I look forward to seeing many of you next week.
