I wanted to remind everyone that proposals for "Birds of a Feather” (BOF) sessions at IETF 106 are due Friday, October 4 by 23:59 UTC. Instructions for submitting your proposal are available at: https://www.ietf.org/how/bofs/bof-procedures/ <https://www.ietf.org/how/bofs/bof-procedures/>. Please also read https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5434 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5434>, Considerations for Having a Successful Birds-of-a-Feather Session, if you are not familiar with it. 

If you are working on a BOF request but you’re not quite ready to submit it, please tell the IESG now by sending an email to iesg@ietf.org <mailto:iesg@ietf.org> to get advance help with the request. We have a number of ways of bringing new work into the IETF and BOFs are just one of them, so please talk to the IESG or an individual Area Director (https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/members/ <https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/members/>) about your idea if you’re thinking about proposing a BOF.

IETF 106 will take place November 16-22 in Singapore. More information is available at: https://www.ietf.org/how/meetings/106/ <https://www.ietf.org/how/meetings/106/>

Thanks,
Alissa Cooper
IETF Chair
