Hi Jeff, Reshad,

Thanks for the great summary!
Just one small update to the wiki, the title of draft-ietf-bfd-unaffiliated-echo has been changed from "Unaffiliated BFD Echo Function" to "Unaffiliated BFD Echo" since -03 version.
Cheers,
Xiao Min

While the session request tool downgraded our area director into one of the chairs, it's our intention to not meet at the upcoming IETF 119 in Brisbane.
Current status of the working group is on the wiki:
https://wiki.ietf.org/en/group/bfd

It's our hope that prior to IETF 119 we'll have fully updated and ready for last call versions of:
draft-ietf-bfd-optimizing-authentication
draft-ietf-bfd-secure-sequence-numbers
draft-ietf-bfd-stability

Once those documents have been re-issued, we'll be asking for directorate review for them.

draft-ietf-bfd-unaffiliated-echo has been submitted for publication by the IESG and we're waiting on that process.

draft-ietf-bfd-large-packets has been refreshed, has an implementation at Juniper and was recently updated to add a YANG module covering its behavior.  The authors (including myself) are in discussions with Xiao Min to see if his recent proposal is an appropriate fit to be incorporated in this draft in some fashion, or whether to keep it as a separate draft.

In non-bfd WG news, RFC 9521 came out for BFD for Geneve.  Congratulations to the authors!

BFD for BIER is apparently ready for WGLC:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/bier/j5czUxHaqJRcmnrYxe8RfqEGUm0/

draft-ietf-spring-bfd appears to be ready for WGLC:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/qg3anN8M8Ks-rjkpJ6pXqmyjrw4/

This bit of work in the MPLS WG has impacts on RFC 5884, BFD for MPLS LSPs:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-mpls-lspping-norao-06

Greg has raised issues covering RFC 5884 in MPLS.  The chairs believe if any work needs to be done, it's best done as a -bis to RFC 5884 in BFD:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/mpls/?q=draft-mirsky-mpls-bfd-bootstrap-clarify

If I've missed anything else, please let the chairs know and we'll get the wiki updated.
