IPOIB WG closing down

Folks,

IPOIB has completed what I consider its main work items. There are
some additional work items (MIBs) in the milestone plan, but after
reviewing the status and activity in the group, and discussing with
the chairs, we have concluded that its best to close the working
group rather than to try to complete the remaining items.

The group will be closed before Montreal. The mailing list will
remain, and may be needed, for instance, if there are AUTH48
issues in the last document that you have in the RFC Editor's
queue (currently pending IANA actions to complete).

Re: IPOIB WG closing down

Hi,

Is there a way that any additional IPoIB MIB standardization at the IETF
occur if this is done ? I thought there was sufficient interest in at least
the SM MIB to complete that work.

Also, what is the status of IPoIB-CM ? Will this be moving forward within
the IETF process towards RFC ?

Thanks.

Well, as far as I understand all the MIB documents are currently
expired, and we are about four years behind the deadlines listed
in the charter.

It would be great of course if there was a pocket of energy somewhere
to complete the MIBs. Is there? In any case, even after WGs close the
ADs sometimes shepherd particular documents through the IESG.
I'd be willing to do that for an IB-related MIB, if someone completed
one.

It is approved, and currently in the RFC Editor's queue. Closing the group
down does not affect this document's progress towards an RFC.

I had made a start at dusting off the SM MIB. I believe completing this work
is important.
I also think there were others who expressed an interest in this particular
MIB.

That would be great. What would the process be ? How would comments be
solicited ?

First you have to get your MIB technical and documentation work
completed. This probably means some hard work on your part, but
feel free to get others to help you, and use this mailing list to solicit
comments and reviews. I would suggest attempting to complete
one document first, and then seeing if there is interest for doing
some of the other ones.

At the time that you think you are ready, contact me and I will organize
a MIB doctor review, do my own AD review, and if both of these come
back as positive we are ready to go IETF Last Call and IESG review. The
IETF Last Call notice is posted to the IETF announce list and but can
copy it here just in case people missed it.

I've revised the TC and the IB interface MIBs and submitted them to the
editor
per recommendation from Bill. I am currently working on the SM MIB but it is

This is directed at this mailing list in general:

Rather than say "I'm interested in working on this", could folk please
Just Do It?

Talk is cheap, and lots of people always say something is important
and should get done. But it only gets done if people put in the time,
and in this WG, people haven't put in the cycles (on the MIB work in
particular).

Re: IPOIB WG closing down

Hi Hal,

The IPoIB-CM draft is in the RFC-editor queue already. See Jari's mail:
