Getting (re)organized

["Mark Day" <markday@cisco.com>]

Happy New Year to everyone. By now I hope that everyone has recovered from
the IETF meeting and/or the holiday season.

I'd like to get started on the tasks we have before us. This message is
partly to outline what needs to be done, but more importantly to ASK FOR
VOLUNTEERS (see below).

Here's the set of tasks that I think need to be done in the short term:

1. Finish the charter for the group, narrowing/modifying as necessary to get
something that's workable.

2. Sign up editors for documents

3. Restart design team teleconferences to move documents/experiments forward

Here's my proposed way of tackling this set:

1. http://www.content-peering.org/CDINewCharter.txt is the group's proposed
charter as presented at the BOF.  Feel free to comment about this charter to
this list.

2. If you want to edit one or more of the 10 identified documents, please
email me, telling me which one(s). If you want to edit a document not
currently on the list, please tell me that and describe that document.  If I
don't hear from certain "likely victims" I will contact you, but it's a lot
easier for me if you contact me first.

3. The editor volunteers will have a teleconference next week: Tuesday Jan
9th at 2pm EST/11am PST/7pm GMT.  This will be primarily to assess the match
between volunteers and proposed documents, so we can either identify likely
editors or conclude that a document has to be dropped.

4. The results (proposed editors and proposed charter) will be sent to this
list shortly after that call.

If you *don't* want to be an editor but you still want to contribute, please
be patient (just until later next week). There will still be lots of
opportunities to work on documents and/or experiments, but our first
organizational problem is editors.

Your comments and suggestions are welcome, of course.
