It's actually RFC 2026 that requires "complete and accurate minutes of meetings." Then 2418 is more specific: "These minutes should include the agenda for the session, an account of the discussion including any decisions made, and a list of attendees."

I don't think we need any more specific text than that in 2026bis and 2418bis, but I agree with Joel et al that this *is* what we need. A fully automated transcript would be a very good start, however.
