Subject: [saag] Summary of LTANS WG meeting at IETF 70th in Vancouver

Summary of LTANS WG meeting 12/4/2007 - 70th IETF - Vancouver: 
(Detailed minutes have been published on the meeting materials page.)

Current work of LTANS WG focuses on finishing existing drafts to bring them to IETF LC. 
There are currently five I-Ds in progress: 
- ERS/SCVP is closing WG LC right after 70th IETF and will proceed to IETF LC. 
- DSSC (info about algorithm lifetimes) will go into WG LC soon
- XMLERS (had a larger revision and may go into WG LC in Jan/Feb)
- validate has been revised and may go to WG LC in Jan/Feb)
- LTAP: WG plans to move from planned status "proposed standard" to "experimental" as we do not see sufficient number of implementations - planned WG LC in Feb

Further comments: 
- as SCVP has now moved to RFC, ERS/SCVP will continue to proceed as well. Sample ERS/SCVP artifacts will be made available shortly after the IETF meeting and a responder may be made available in January for interop testing.
- XMLERS has be revised and its XML structure now closely matches ERS ASN.1
- invitation for additional XMLERS implementations to run interop tests
- search for government authorities (that provide info on suitability of algorithms and their pararmeters) who want to use and provide data in the dssc format. 
- LTAP will change status to "experimental"
- currently tbd whether LTANS shall re-continue work on architecture I-D to explain how the standards work together and outline the architecture of an overall system

Cheers, Tobias
