[adding NMRG] Thanks, Mahesh Yes, indeed, NMRG meeting starting at 9AM, so lets try to get the most out of the first hour of our side-meeting at 8AM. There are a couple of documents proposed/discussed for the NMRG meeting including yours truly draft-cxxx-nmrg-ai4ibn-00 that should be also of interest to folks interested in AINETOPS. Even more so, similar to how NMRG work product (RFCs) was a justification in support of chartering ANIMA (by Benoit back then), such work in NMRG could equally support justifying AINETOPS - or help it to scope. And that's definitely also a question i would like to raise in NMRG: "which of the stuff here in NMRG do you see of interest to you (when you are an operator specifically) to be brought to the IETF, specifically a group scoped such as proposed for AINETOPS". So maybe we'll get even more time and interest in the topic, even if some of of it will be in NMRG on friday. But there are a lot of operator participants in there.
