The proposed workplan for SHIM6

We have a relatively aggressive set of milestones for this effort
which will require some organizational effort to see through, while
at the same time making sure that we are looking at this in terms
of the quality of the work.

In particular the initial focus is on the August milestones of
our charter, publishing initial drafts of

   - architecture
   - protocol
   - use of cryptographic locators
   - multi-homing triggers
   - applicability statement

The good news is that we're building from where Multi6 left off,
and the document set that we can start from is:

   draft-huston-l3shim-arch-00.txt
   draft-ietf-multi6-functional-dec-00.txt
   draft-ietf-multi6-l3shim-00.txt
   draft-ietf-multi6-failure-detection-00.txt
   draft-ietf-multi6-hba-00.txt
   draft-ietf-multi6-app-refer-00.txt

To get things started, Kurtis and I have asked a number of folk to
take the role of lead author / editor of each of these areas, and
they have kindly agreed to do so. They are:

   - architecture of Shim6
      Geoff Huston
      initial base document: draft-huston-l3shim-arch-00.txt

   - protocol
      Erik Nordmark
      initial base document: draft-ietf-multi6-l3shim-00.txt
      (depending on scope, an additional person may be needed here)

   - use of cryptographic locators
      Marcelo Bagnulo, Jari Arkko
      initial base document: draft-ietf-multi6-hba-00.txt

   - multi-homing triggers
        Iljitsch van Beijnum
       initial base document: draft-ietf-multi6-failure-detection-00.txt

   - applicability statements
      Joe Abley
      no initial base document, although the functional description
      and architecture documents may provide initial material, and
      the app-refer draft may also be relevant here.

The current plan is:

a) to request the lead authors / editors to resubmit the multi6
    documents as shim6 wg documents in the next week (prior to the
    -00 draft cutoff for the Paris IETF meeting)

b) to proceed with a 2 hour Working Group meeting in August as
    follows:

     Shim6 Working Group Agenda
