Subject: [rbridge] Rechartering trill WG

A new charter for the trill WG has been adopted, https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/trill/charter  I know it's taken quite a while to get this charter in place; I hope the delay has not been an impediment to the WG.

Two trill WG work items were temporarily left out of the newly adopted charter:

(8) Support for RBridge campus VLAN and priority regions, so that a
VLAN ID or priority may have different meanings in different
regions, requiring configuration only at border RBridges
<draft-ietf-trill-rbridge-vlan-mapping>.

(9) Specify the use of the TRILL protocol in data centers, such as
by adding any support that may be need for IEEE 802.1 "Data Center
Bridging" standards <draft-eastlake-trill-rbridge-dcb>.

Because of the potential overlap between these work items and work in IEEE, the IESG wants to send a liaison about these work items for review and comment by IEEE 802.1.  Adoption of the two additional work items will be considered again by the IESG once we get a response from IEEE 802.1
