[Fwd: GGF and IETF]

[Leslie Daigle <leslie@thinkingcat.com>]

Thoughts?

They originally wanted to have their steering group hooked
into the ISOC/IESG/IAB tree.  Now they're looking for a liaison
activity.  
Is this one we want to pursue?  
(I'm cc'ing IESG in case there are folk there who would
find such a liaison useful to their area; IAB as liaison
appointers).

Leslie.

Dear Leslie-

For some time now we have asked Cees de Laat to act as a liaison between 
GGF and IETF, since Cees is a member of our steering group.  For a longer 
time I've had conversations about GGF/IETF relations with Harald Alvestrand 
and others.  When we were developing our process we had as a stated goal to 
be 'compatible' with the Internet Standards Process and so we got a 
tremendous amount of good advice also from Scott Bradner and Brian Carpenter.

I would like to ask what we should do in order to make the liaison activity 
formal and official.  I thought at one point Cees mentioned he was 
developing an RFC with Scott Bradner about this, but perhaps that was the 
cart before the horse.

Thanks for any advice you might have,
Charlie Catlett, Chair, GGF
