There was a bubble of issues this month requiring several xml2rfc 
releases. Note that this slowed the datatracker work on Django2 and 
meetecho integration somewhat.

There is a new API endpoint that the new registration system uses to 
tell the datatracker details about registrations, creating datatracker 
accounts as necessary.
> - datatracker/meetecho integration
We are integrating an openid provider into the datatracker, and 
providing the information necessary for meetecho to use to grant users 
the ability to speak in a given session.

IOLA is working through the feedback from the secretariat on the new 
schedule editor. None of this will block scheduling for 108, but the new 
scheduler may not be what gets used yet.

This is code-complete and awaiting my review.
>    - RPC Security Code Review (ZX Security) - Robert
The code review is essentially complete. The most critical issue 
identified (a possible remote-execution exploit) has already been 
addressed by the RPC. We have populated a private github repository to 
do the remaining remediation work in.

>    - YangCatalog (Pantheon) - Éric / Robert

As Jay noted on list, an amended statement of work is now in place, and 
we are developing a concrete schedule for the new deliverables (copied 
here for convenience):

    * migrating yangcatalog to the cloud and implementing cloud features agreed with IETF LLC;
    * managing the cloud yangcatalog to meet performance and uptime requirements agreed with IETF LLC,
    * developing a web interface to enable administrative work to be performed by a third party, with features as specified by IETF LLC;
    * supporting the transfer of administrative work to a third party nominated by IETF LLC, including identifying and documenting tasks, and providing support and remote training for the third party.

This work is very close to ready for merge. Rich Salz is reviewing the 
current branch.
>    - Github backups - Robert
We will use Martin Thompson's and Mike Bishop's scripts for backup. If 
we can integrate the external resource work this month, we'll use it as 
the source of repositories to make backups of and start those backups 
this month. If there is a delay on the external resource work, we'll 
look at a temporary measure to identify the repositories needing 
backup.  There are still improvements needed to the scripts to capture 
the content of open pull requests. Martin and Mike will be working on 
those as volunteers.

I was unavailable to help Glen on this project most of May. We plan to 
start in again on this now.

We are planning to address this need with a small contracted project.

This is the next major change to the datatracker after the django2 work 
completes. We will likely wait to start on it to give Henrik time to 
help move the documentation of the v3 vocabulary forward.
