There has been push-back on the proposed Kitten recharter because of the 
following:

1. Milestones should be defined for each of the proposed work items
2. Editors should be assigned to each of these

We are imploring anyone who would like to solve some of these problems 
to volunteer.  Anyone that might not have prior IETF process experience 
should not hesitate to volunteer.  We will help in getting volunteers up 
to speed.

For reference I have included the list of work items below.  For those 
that already have an assignment and for any new volunteers, please 
provide proposed milestones for:

1. WGLC of the corresponding draft with month/year
2. Submission to the IESG of the corresponding draft with month/year

Proposed work items:

* GSS-API: initializing credentials
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: iterating credentials
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: exporting/importing credentials
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: specification for asynchronous calls
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: interfaces/improvements for better error message reporting
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: programmer friendly interfaces
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: transition SASL mechanism for OpenID
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: transition SASL mechanism for SAML
[editor: TBD]

* GSS-API: publish draft-ietf-kitten-gssapi-extensions-iana
[editor: Nicolas Williams]

* GSS-API: publish draft-ietf-kitten-gssapi-naming-exts
[editor: Leif Johansson]

* SASL: publish draft-melnikov-digest-to-historic
[editor: Alexey Melnikov]

* SASL: publish draft-williams-tls-app-sasl-opt
[editor: Nicolas Williams]
