Dear Tao-Discuss,

We have discussed at length on this list about the role of the Tao. Since much of the information in the Tao is not keeping up with the changes of the organization and the website is providing all that information in various formats to our community, I would suggest that we move to the retirement of the Tao.

The Tao has been with us for a long time, it has served its purpose very well due to the excellent work of many editors and translators. And now another vehicle is doing its work better fitting to current times, the current state of the organization, and the needs of newcomers.

I wrote a draft that could help guide this process:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-tenoever-tao-retirement

As always, you feedback and PRs are very much welcomed here:

https://github.com/ietf/tao/blob/main/draft-retirement.md

Best,

Niels
Editor of the Tao
