Hi,
Please find attached a file that contains: - a set of proposed *draft* milestones - a discussion of why there are so many milestones - a high-level explanation of the work items. Note that this looks like a lot of milestones, but please read the text on this issue in the attached file. The bottom line is that this is a product of micro management where I have tried to identify all of the I-Ds that we might produce to cover the referenced work, and where I have placed two (sometimes three) milestones for each I-D. This micro-management may be over the top, and represents a full pendulum swing from the previous style of CCAMP milestones, but in the light of the hiatus of the last 12 months, i think this may be beneficial and might achieve rapid forwards movement. I would welcome your (constructive!) comments. Notes: - Why isn't my I-D also cited as input material? No insult intended. The current list is simply there to show the ADs that work is already in progress. All I-Ds will be used as input. - Why isn't my pet topic included? Are you sure it is not there between
the lines? This
list of milestones isn't completely
proscriptive.
The objective is to have the WG agreed on the
milestones that it wants to commit to by the end of August.
Thanks,
Adrian

CCAMP Working Group - Rechartering Effort
Below you will find
- a list of proposed milestones
- an explanation of why this is a long list
- overview of proposed drafts and work items
In reviewing this we should look for:
- topics that are irrelevant or unwanted by the WG
- topics that have been left out but are wanted by the WG
- topics that have been assigned the wrong priority or urgency
- topics or collections or topics that are sufficiently large
to potentially warrant their own working group.

Why so many milestons?
----------------------
The number of milestones shown in this proposed list far exceeds
anything I have ever seen in a working group charter. This is
intentional and while it does indicate a heavy work-load it also
indicates a higher level of micro-management than is usual within
working groups. Thus two milestones are presented for each I-D
(adoption as a WG I-D, and passing to the IESG post-WG-last-call).
This can be compared with the "normal" charter milestones which
include a single work-related item that may span several I-Ds and
refers vaguely only to the "submission" of I-Ds.
In other words, reviewers of this list should not panic because
of its length, but should see this as beneficial.
Explanation of I-Ds and work items
----------------------------------
The following text briefly introduces the work items that are
represented by the milestones listed above. In this text an
astrix (*) indicates a milestone to be set.
The work is divided into several categories according to how
core it is and how it should be prioritized. Existing drafts
are referenced to indicate that work is already in progress -
this is not intended to provide a complete list of existing
drafts.
