As one might have inferred from the limited list activity since the start o=
f the year, the STORM WG will not meet during the IETF meeting week in Prag=
ue.

Your WG chairs are currently (as time permits - my "copious spare time" has=
 been in short supply) focusing on:
- Getting the MPA draft revised in response to WG LC comments.
- Ensuring that we have a pair of consistent iSCSI drafts (consolidated and=
 SAM-based feature updates)

The latter item is the set-up for (at least) one more round of "What else s=
hould we take out?" discussion.  If anyone wants to start that now, that wo=
uld be fine (hint).

Regarding other drafts:
- The two iFCP-related drafts are in the RFC Editor's Queue.
- We need to get the MPA draft revised and out of the WG before figuring ou=
t what to do about the expired iSER draft.
- We need to get through the "What else should we take out?" discussion of =
iSCSI in order to scope the work on the
	iSCSI MIB update draft.  Prakash Venkatesen (who did the fine work on the =
iFCP MIB update draft) has signed
	up to work on this one, and I've heard from Mark Bakke (author of the orig=
inal iSCSI MIB0 , so we have the
	editing team identified.

One can view this as two threads of WG activity:
- MPA draft, then iSER.
- iSCSI draft discussions, then revise drafts in parallel with work startin=
g on iSCSI MIB update

FYI,
--David (WG co-chair).
