Dear NVO3 Participants -

Thanks to all contributors that have given feedback during the recent Calls for Adoption of draft-narten-nvo3-overlay-problem-statement [1] and draft-lasserre-nvo3-framework [2]. While the drafts enjoy some support, the chairs have concluded that the feedback was too divided to be seen as WG consensus. Thus, at this time, the drafts are not adopted by the NVO3 working group.

Nevertheless, the chairs remain committed to the WG's milestone dates. We plan to take follow-up action(s) following the Vancouver meeting, to ensure that the WG has appropriate documents to satisfy our charter. This may still be achieved through adoption of existing documents such as draft-narten-nvo3-overlay-problem-statement, draft-lasserre-nvo3-framework, and/or other drafts.

As we wrote recently [3], all participants that wish to contribute are encouraged to do so without delay. We will attempt to make progress quickly, using the upcoming meeting at IETF 84 along with mailing list discussion during July to determine our next steps.

Sincerely,
- Benson & Matthew
