Subject: [[410602044]] Subscription to ietf-ldup for ldup-archive@lists.ietf.org

Greetings. This message is a periodic reminder that
     ldup-archive@lists.ietf.org
is subscribed to the
     ietf-ldup
mailing list.

There are two purposes for this message:
- If this message is bounced by your mail server, I can remove you from
  the mailing list and reduce waste of bandwidth and resources. (If you
  are reading this message, it clearly didn't get bounced!)
- Some people stay subscribed to mailing lists even though they do not
  want to because they do not know how to unsubscribe. 

If you want to stay subscribed to the ietf-ldup mailing list,
you do not need to do anything. Feel free to delete this message.

On the other hand, if you want to unsubscribe from this list, simply go
to the following link:
     <http://www.imc.org/Unsubs/410602044>

If for some reason you cannot go to that web site, you can also
unsubscribe by email; however, doing so is not as likely to get you
unsubscribed as the web site is. To unsubscribe using email, you can
respond to this message and I will unsubscribe you by hand in the next
few days. Again, this is not assured to work because your mail system
may make it impossible for me to determine who you are or what you want
to unsubscribe to.

Alternatively, you can send a plain-text message to:
     ietf-ldup-request@imc.org
with the single word
     unsubscribe
in the body of the message. This last method assumes that the "From:"
address in your mail is "ldup-archive@lists.ietf.org". Again, using the
web site above is more likely to work than this method (due to limitations
in Majordomo, the mailing list software we currently use).

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

LDUP WG Meeting Minutes
November 20, 2002

We initiated a chat conference with remote attendees using
the facilities provided.

Roger G. Harrison volunteered to take notes for the meeting
minutes.

The co-chair in attendance, Chris Apple, spoke on behalf of
remote attendees and displayed the chat conference room window
on the overhead screen while doing so.

Some WG members in the meeting room were also in the chat
conference room and made comments there in response to
comments from remote attendees.

We reviewed the agenda and there were no changes requested.

Chris Apple gave a brief overview of current WG deliverables
status. The requirements document has been published as an RFC
LCUP's WG last call concluded and a substantial number of
issues were raised. The document editors, the remote WG
attendees in this case, are working to resolve the issues.
LCUP will go through a second WG Last Call after it is
revised.

Kurt Zeilenga led a discussion about eventual convergence
for LCUP. The current proposal from WG fails to provide
eventual convergence of updates made to server at client.
Kurt believes that eventual convergence is a strong
requirement based on conversations with authors of LCUP.
Kurt and colleagues have developed a protocol that they
believe does provide convergence, but it is too chatty.
Question: can we solve problem and still meet other LCUP
Requirements. In particular, can we do it without maintaining
session state? The general belief is no.

Current LCUP eventual convergence status: we understand the
problems and have explored ideas to solve them, but the feeling
is that we're not at the end of LCUP effort, we're in the middle.
There are still significant engineering issues to be resolved.

There was some discussion held during this LCUP topic that is
reflected in the chat conference room archive. The discussion
that still needs to occur on this topic is largely in the
technical details. Chris Apple recommended that the discussion
Be moved to the mailing list. Mark Wahl requested that the LCUP
authors publish a revised specification before the next IETF
meeting.

We acknowledged that there have been rumblings of concluding WG.
Chris Apple has talked with several people to get perspectives
and proposed a path to conclusion of work for WG to consider.
The proposal was reviewed by John Strassner and Patrick Faltstrom.

The presentation covered the state of various WG deliverables
and followed that by a proposal from the co-chairs to proceed
with an aim of publishing LCUP as a standards track document
and all other documents as either Informational or Experimental
depending on the nature of their content. There was some
discussion about the usage profile document being more
appropriate as an Informational document than Experimental
as proposed by the co-chairs. The general feeling of the room
was that Informational would be more appropriate for the usage
profile document. The proposal also mentions referencing
X.500 BAC and/or the recent I-Ds written by Kurt Zeilenga
and Steven Legg related to the X.500 administrative model.
The WG chairs also proposed that they would request that
the LDAP Directorate to review those I-Ds from Kurt and
Steven with that context in mind. There was some concern
expressed over giving more weight to the recommendations of
the LDAP Directorate than the rest of the WG. These concerns
were discussed and resolved by the co-chair emphasizing that
Kurt Zeilenga was correct in his observation that the LDAP
Directorate not receive more weight than the WG members
in evaluation of consensus.

It was pointed out by Chris Apple that volunteers are willing
to continue and/or take over editing documents. The document for
which there is no confirmed volunteer for editor is the main
LDUP protocol specification. The current editor of that document,
Tim Hahn recommended that John McMeeking take over. The co-chairs
will approach John about doing this.

The co-chair's proposal also indicates a target date for
completing all documents by June 2003. Completion in the
context of this proposal means the documents are ready to
enter WG last call or have already completed WG last call.
There was some concern expressed by Ed Reed over the normal
use of a WG Last Call in relation to LDUP documents in their
present state because he doesn't believe that this could be
accomplished by that date. In particular, Ed sees the
administrative and access control models as potential deadlocks.
Chris Apple replies that we would attempt to use external
documents for access control and that the administrative
model proposal was on the table in the form of an individually
contributed I-D. Mark Wahl asked if there would be more than
one vendor who is willing to implement in a way that
implementation interoperability can be tested.

Chris Apple responded that we don't have a clear answer and
that this is the primary reason for suggesting experimental
publication for most LDUP documents. Perhaps the best thing
is to publish the experiment and let the market decide the
answers. Ed Reed then proposed that the documents simply be
frozen and published as Experimental. Chris Apple responded that
this was more or less what he hopes to accomplish but wants
to have a last chance to remove gross inconsistencies before
publication.

Mark Wahl made an alternate proposal for concluding LDUP by
suggesting that the WG consider putting drafts back to individual
submission status as was done in LDAPEXT when it was concluding.

Chris Apple concluded the meeting by indicating that both the
proposal from the co-chairs and the proposal from Mark Wahl be
discussed on the mailing list. If consensus can be established
on one of the proposals, the co-chairs will take appropriate
actions to implement that consensus. For the case of the
co-chairs' proposal, this means revising the LDUP WG Charter.
For the case of Mark Wahl's proposal, the WG simply concludes
after attempting to achieve consensus on a revised LCUP
specification and does not attempt to do more work as a
chartered IETF group on other LDUP specifications.

As mentioned in the proposed WG meeting minutes, there
are currently two proposals on the table for concluding
LDUP:

1) A proposal from the co-chairs. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP spec as Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of a WG Last Call.

B) Publish remaining WG documents as either Informational
   or Experimental after resolving gross inconsistencies and
   explicitly identifying areas where the WG was unable to
   achieve consensus in those documents.

C) Reference X.500 BAC in the General Usage Profile as well
   as the X.500 Administrative Model (perhaps from the drafts
   by Steven L. and Kurt Z., perhaps directly from the X.500
   Recommendations themselves)

D) Reference X.500 BAC and Administrative Model in other WG
   documents as needed.

E) Documents should enter WG Last Call on or before
   the July 2003 IETF Meeting.

F) Conclude LDUP when last document is published as an RFC.

2) A proposal from Mark Wahl. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP as a Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of WG Last Call.

B) Conclude LDUP once LCUP spec is published as an RFC.

C) Convert all WG documents to individual I-D contributions
   and allow editors to work out consensus (or not) outside
   of the context of a WG.

I have spoke with a number of folks who have opinions about
the pros and cons of either approach.

Please post your views to the list on the pros and cons of
these approaches and indicate which way you are leaning at
this time.

Also please feel free to post your observations about any
inaccuracies in the summaries of the proposals above.

A) I agree with finishing work on LCUP as a proposed standard.

B) With respect to the replication work, I agree that it seems highly
unlikely that the working group will be able to reach consensus, and that
even if published, that many directory server vendors would attempt to
support it.  I suspect too much work has been done on each vendor's
replication implementations for them to invest in new replication support.
Personally, I would hate to see the existing replication work lost.  I
would like to see it archived in some form along with a list of known
issues.  An experimental or informational RFC seems to be the way to do
this within IETF, but I'd go for anything that preserved the work without
too much pain.

I am willing to contribute to such an effort, as long as it is a small,
contained effort with enough participation to keep any individual
contribution to a reasonable level.  A July 2003 cutoff date for this work
seems reasonable.  If we can't do it by then, we're probably not going to
get it done.

With respect to this being done as a WG or as individual submisisons, I
don't think it matters much.  It is going to require a group effort (not
necessarily WG) to wrap this up, and the individuals woud be drawn from the
LDUP WG.  The WG might even be able to acheive consensus on issues (we
don't have to solve, just record it).  I think it would be helpful
(motivational) if the WG agreed that there was value in preserving the
work.  If the WG wants to pursue this, great.  If not, and there's enough
interest to do an "individual" submission, that's fine.  Otherwise, its
clearly time to drop the matter.

C & D) I thought the access control discussion was largely due to
replication issues.  If we are not going to do replication as a proposed
standard, is there any need to reference X.500 BAC and Administrative
Model?

E) I defer to the WG and the LCUP authors as to whether July 2003 is
acheivable,

F) Concur.  LDUP WG should conclude when LCUP is completed.

As mentioned in the proposed WG meeting minutes, there
are currently two proposals on the table for concluding
LDUP:

1) A proposal from the co-chairs. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP spec as Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of a WG Last Call.

B) Publish remaining WG documents as either Informational
   or Experimental after resolving gross inconsistencies and
   explicitly identifying areas where the WG was unable to
   achieve consensus in those documents.

C) Reference X.500 BAC in the General Usage Profile as well
   as the X.500 Administrative Model (perhaps from the drafts
   by Steven L. and Kurt Z., perhaps directly from the X.500
   Recommendations themselves)

D) Reference X.500 BAC and Administrative Model in other WG
   documents as needed.

E) Documents should enter WG Last Call on or before
   the July 2003 IETF Meeting.

F) Conclude LDUP when last document is published as an RFC.

2) A proposal from Mark Wahl. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP as a Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of WG Last Call.

B) Conclude LDUP once LCUP spec is published as an RFC.

C) Convert all WG documents to individual I-D contributions
   and allow editors to work out consensus (or not) outside
   of the context of a WG.

I have spoke with a number of folks who have opinions about
the pros and cons of either approach.

Please post your views to the list on the pros and cons of
these approaches and indicate which way you are leaning at
this time.

Also please feel free to post your observations about any
inaccuracies in the summaries of the proposals above.

In my opinion that there is not energy left in the WG to complete
LDUP on any track.  Also, I feel there is little consumer interest
in LDUP to justify further IETF work in this area.  So, not only
do I not support option 1), I do not support leaving any LDUP
deliverables on our charter.  Instead, I suggest that individuals
pursue publication of the portions they feel are worthy (e.g., URP).
While the WG can review this work, but I prefer the WG no longer
be responsible for seeing such documents through.  I also believe
the WG should not attempt to review any LDAP Admin Model nor
LDAP Access Control documents.  Instead, it should refer any
such request for review to the LDAPEXT list.

With respect to LCUP, as I noted at IETF#55, we're not at the end
of the LCUP engineering process but somewhere in the middle.  We
still got some significant issues to reach closure on.  A WG may
aide in seeing LCUP through.  I am a bit concerned that the LCUP
effort is seems also to struggling a bit, but I believe there is a
reasonable level of interest (both within our community as well
as our consumers) in LCUP.  I think the key to this being successful
as a WG effort is narrowing the WG's focus to LCUP standardization
and having our chairs, with the help from the ADs, keep this
effort on a very short leash.

Hence, I support option 2 with a couple of caveats.
  I) LCUP be the only WG deliverable
    Ia) resolve major outstanding issues by IETF#56
    Ib) progress documents by IETF#57
  II) allow review of LDUP I-D produced by individuals
     (as long as these reviews does not slow LCUP progress)

The other authors and I are currently reviewing what we hope to propose 
as LCUP draft version 04.  I believe we have addressed the issues 
brought up during Last Call.

effort is seems also to struggling a bit, but I believe there is a
reasonable level of interest (both within our community as well
as our consumers) in LCUP.  I think the key to this being successful
as a WG effort is narrowing the WG's focus to LCUP standardization
and having our chairs, with the help from the ADs, keep this
effort on a very short leash.

Hence, I support option 2 with a couple of caveats.
  I) LCUP be the only WG deliverable
    Ia) resolve major outstanding issues by IETF#56
    Ib) progress documents by IETF#57
  II) allow review of LDUP I-D produced by individuals
     (as long as these reviews does not slow LCUP progress)

B) Conclude LDUP once LCUP spec is published as an RFC.

C) Convert all WG documents to individual I-D contributions

  of the context of a WG.

I have spoke with a number of folks who have opinions about
the pros and cons of either approach.

Please post your views to the list on the pros and cons of
these approaches and indicate which way you are leaning at
this time.

Also please feel free to post your observations about any
inaccuracies in the summaries of the proposals above.

I think the middle is a large area but we are closer to the end of the 
middle than the beginning of the middle ;-)

I don't think the LCUP effort is "struggling" much if at all, but I 
agree that it will be helpful to keep LDUP alive long enough to complete 
the LCUP work.

While I am convinced that the authors are reasonable
committed to completing LCUP in a timely manner, I've
had concerns that the rest of the WG (including myself)
really isn't engaged in the engineering of LCUP.
Specifically, I am afraid that a charter that allows
significant distraction (LDUP, Admin Models, ACMs)
from the LCUP standardization effort will lead us
nowhere.

Thanks to those who have posted comments so far on this topic.

In the interest of moving forward and recognizing that this is
a time of year when many of us are spending more time with family
and friends than reading IETF mailing lists, lets keep the
commenting window on this thread open until January 15, 2003.

If you've not done so already, please post your reactions,
comments, etc. on this topic to the list by that date. Then
John and I will try to make some judgment call on consensus.

I make this second request for comments because I know from
speaking with several folks at the last IETF that there are
perspectives which have not been expressed on the list so far.

One thing that seems fairly clear at this point in time though,
is that the work towards standardizing LCUP has sufficient
momentum and value to keep it going regardless of how the
concluding LDUP thread is resolved.

Subject: Proposals for Concluding LDUP



As mentioned in the proposed WG meeting minutes, there
are currently two proposals on the table for concluding
LDUP:

1) A proposal from the co-chairs. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP spec as Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of a WG Last Call.

B) Publish remaining WG documents as either Informational
   or Experimental after resolving gross inconsistencies and
   explicitly identifying areas where the WG was unable to
   achieve consensus in those documents.

C) Reference X.500 BAC in the General Usage Profile as well
   as the X.500 Administrative Model (perhaps from the drafts
   by Steven L. and Kurt Z., perhaps directly from the X.500
   Recommendations themselves)

D) Reference X.500 BAC and Administrative Model in other WG
   documents as needed.

E) Documents should enter WG Last Call on or before
   the July 2003 IETF Meeting.

F) Conclude LDUP when last document is published as an RFC.

2) A proposal from Mark Wahl. Summarized as follows:

A) Publish LCUP as a Proposed Standard after successful
   passage of WG Last Call.

B) Conclude LDUP once LCUP spec is published as an RFC.

C) Convert all WG documents to individual I-D contributions
   and allow editors to work out consensus (or not) outside
   of the context of a WG.

I have spoke with a number of folks who have opinions about
the pros and cons of either approach.

Please post your views to the list on the pros and cons of
these approaches and indicate which way you are leaning at
this time.

Also please feel free to post your observations about any
inaccuracies in the summaries of the proposals above.
