Since the December virtual meeting the group has had some amount of discussion on the list, and three drafts have been posted this year. I think we also have at one other document being worked that could be posted soon.

In the December meeting, we divided potentially useful things we could do in two categories:

1/ documenting specific design principles motivated by evolving situation, to be published as short IAB RFCs
2/ proposing a way forward to document a change in the threat model, and bring/send it to the IETF

Documents relating to item 1 have been discussed on the mailing list, and revised. Two drafts discussed in this category currently: draft-thomson-tmi on careful use of intermediaries, and draft-arkko-iab-data-minimization-principle on careful release of data to other parties (“only do it on a need-to-know-basis”). The idea for these documents is that whatever we produce should not be an all-encompassing-cover-everything documents, but address specific, narrow issues that we believe are reasonable guidance at present time.

A design team was formed for item 2 that has worked on a proposal and organised a meeting. Specific proposal to be published though.

There’s an ongoing doodle poll for a meeting of the model-t program, sometime in the weeks after the IETF. See the model-t mailing list archives for more information in https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/model-t/ <https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/model-t/>
