The final IETF 107 session agenda has been published, and now both
nfsv4 WG sessions are planned for Thursday afternoon.

I propose the addition of a 10-minute session led by Tom, if there
is room on the nfsv4 agenda, to discuss the following matters:

- A review of the material for those unfamiliar with RDMA Flush
- Whether this work falls in the current WG charter
- Whether the I-D should be adopted as an nfsv4 WG document
- Whether a milestone is needed
- Whether this is a one-time proposal, or if we are agreeing
  that until there is another IETF home for RDMA-related documents,
  the nfsv4 WG should act as shepherd for such work.
