Please excuse this widecast. BFD (bi-directional forwarding detection) will be meeting at IETF 105 during the Tuesday 17:10 session. During this session, we will be having an open discussion regarding BFD as a potential carrier for more general OAM functions. Somewhat similar to other popular protocols, there's been continuing discussion about how to pack other interesting things into BFD. In prior years, the BFD working group has largely kept the protocol bounded to its core functionality. This discussion will be to determine whether BFD is an appropriate mechanism for such future extensions. It is the chairs' belief that this discussion will eventually expand to other working groups in the context of "what is OAM in IETF". Please note that BFD is not currently chartered for such a wide topic. The BFD chairs would like to request interested parties to attend our session to help inform this discussion. The following non-working group draft may be of interest as an example of this discussion: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mirmin-bfd-extended-01 -- Jeff & Reshad
