ARMD Participants -

The WG co-chairs and the draft's authors would appreciate WG feedback on the future of draft-karir-armd-statistics. The document can be found at http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-karir-armd-statistics-02.

The chairs asked if there was consensus for Adoption amongst the attendees at the IETF-82 ARMD meeting in Taipei.  Subsequently, this action was proposed in the Work Plan posted to the ARMD mailing list in mid-December (http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/armd/current/msg00375.html): "2. There was interest in having more data in the ARP/ND statistics document draft-karir-armd-statistics-01, but there was little interest in contributing such data. Unless there are contributions to this document in the near future it will be moved to last-call."

Since then, there has been no further mailing list discussion of the draft, but a few participants have given private feedback. As a result of this feedback, we are unsure whether to adopt the draft or abandon it. If adopted by the WG, the chairs intend for this draft to fulfill our 2nd chartered milestone, which currently says:  "ARP/ND statistics collection and behavior analysis [...]". If abandoned, in absence of an improved replacement, the chairs intend to drop that milestone from the charter.

Please provide feedback and discussion on the mailing list, so that we can decide how to proceed with this draft.

Cheers,
-Benson
