[atoca] ATOCA Milestones

[Martin Thomson <[e-mail]>]

Based on the discussion at the last meeting, the chairs and
responsible AD have formulated the following milestones.

These milestones replace all existing working group milestones.  If we
are fortunate enough to complete these, then there shouldn't be any
problem in coming up with more.

The understanding is that if these milestones are not met, then the
working group will be closed.

The chairs request that the working group concentrate efforts on these
milestones.  The following work is potentially of interest, but we may
request that discussion be curtailed if is deemed to be affecting
progress toward these milestones:
 - alert delivery mechanisms
 - discovery of alert sources
 - discovery of trust anchors
If this experiment succeeds we can discuss proceeding with these.
