    The agenda for the IETF San Diego domreg BOF is being changed to more
    explicitly separate the registry-registrar protocol and whois portions of
    the session. We'll actually be having two BOFs during the same 2.5 hour
    session! This update should be posted shortly on the IETF web site, but
    here's early notice:

    Domain Registration Services BOF Agenda:

    Co-Chair: Scott Hollenbeck <shollenbeck@verisign.com>
    Co-Chair: Lars-Johan Liman <liman@sunet.se>

    Description:
    This BOF will examine current proposals for a generic domain name
    registry-registrar protocol for use in shared domain name registration
    systems. The goal of the BOF is two-fold:

    1. To determine if a working group should be formed to develop such a
    protocol, and
    2. To produce draft goals and an outline for a charter if there is interest
    in forming a working group.

    The scope of the BOF will be limited to technical issues associated with
    protocol development, including:

    - Discussion of existing Internet-Draft requirements for a generic
    registry-registrar protocol.
    - Discussion of interest in forming a working group to develop a generic
    protocol.
    - Presentation of an existing published protocol proposal.
    - Working group goal and charter development.

    Agenda:
    5m Introductions and agenda review
    10m Protocol requirements description (draft-hollenbeck-grrp-reqs-05.txt)
    15m Discussion of interest in a standards track domain registration protocol

    (if there is interest in continuing)

    (draft-hollenbeck-epp-00.txt)
    30m WG goal and charter brainstorming
