Hello,

As shared previously [1], preliminary proposals for Birds-of-a-Feather =
(BOF) sessions at the upcoming IETF 109 meeting are requested by 18 =
September. This will allow time for clarification and tuning of =
proposals ahead of the BOF submission deadline, which is 2 October.=20

Preliminary proposals do not need to be detailed. A brief description of =
the proposal, who the proponents are, and whether or not the BoF is =
intended to discuss a working group charter is all that is requested. =
Instructions for submitting preliminary proposals are available at:=20

https://www.ietf.org/how/bofs/bof-procedures/=20

Please also read RFC 5434 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5434), =
Considerations for Having a Successful Birds-of-a-Feather Session, if =
you are not familiar with it.=20

BOFs are just one of a number of ways of bringing new work into the =
IETF. If you are considering a BOF request but you are unsure whether to =
submit it, please tell the IESG now by sending an email to =
iesg@ietf.org, or speak to an individual Area Director =
(https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/members/) about your idea.

Thanks,
Alissa Cooper
IETF Chair
