I'm aware of a fair amount of implementation work happening right now, and
Meadhbh is cranking on revisions to the LLSD/LLIDL draft. Yes, it's a bit
quiet here, but I'm not too disturbed; there's a lot of
writing/implementation to do to catch up to the state of discussions.

That said...

IETF77 is coming up in Anaheim, CA, USA on March 21-25. Sufficient interest
has been expressed offline for us to have a WG meeting, and it's time to
start thinking about an agenda for a session. I've been chatting offline
with some of the draft authors about topics, but others who are planning to
attend (physically or virtually) should start to think about what topics
might benefit from real-time communication.

Feel free to email me (or the list, of course) if you have a topic you're
thinking of presenting, and want some early feedback on whether it makes
sense for the agenda.

(And speaking of attending virtually, I'm planning to run some trials in
February to make sure we have the appropriate hardware and software for a
mixed reality session. Volunteers for implementing chat relays, etc, would
be appreciated.)
