    1. The minutes of the December 2, 1993 meeting were approved. Coya will
    place copy in the public directories

    2. The IESG approved the publication of the following three
    Internet-Drafts as Proposed Standard:

    Network Services Monitoring MIB
    Mail Monitoring MIB
    X.500 Directory Monitoring MIB

    Coya to send notification to the IETF and the RFC Editors

    3. The IESG discussed the status of the Classical IP and ARP over ATM
    document that has been submitted for Proposed Status. The WG needs
    to clarify the meaning of "Classical" as used in the document. If it
    refers to IPv4, the use of the word MUST in requiring a router
    between virtual lans must be changed. If it refers to the classical
    paradigm, then it would be acceptable. A revision of the document
    clarifying the definition of Classical is required.

    Scott will send message to the WG conveying the concerns of the IESG
    and requesting that a revision be submitted as an Internet-Draft
    which clarifies the definition of the word Classical.

    4. The IESG approved the publication of Questions and Answers to
    Commonly Asked "Primary and Secondary School Internet User" Questions"
    <draft-ietf-isn-faq-02.txt> as an Informational FYI RFC.

    5. The IESG approved the publication of Essential Tools for the OSI
    Internet <draft-ietf-noop-tools-03.txt> as an Informational FYI RFC.

    6. The status of the Router Requirements document was discussed. The
    current document will be submitted as an Internet-Draft, and a
    new Router Requirements Working Group will be established. Stev and
    Dave P. will work together on identifying and choosing the WG Chair.

    7. The IESG approved RSVP as a Working Group in the Transport Services
    Area. Coya to enter charter and milestone information and send an
    announcement to the IETF community.

    8. Scott Bradner requested that if any Area Director knows of a
    proposal that might have some operational impact, they should give
    the OPS Area Director an explicit referral.

    9. The IESG discussed the Simple Network Paging Protocol document which
    is an individual submission. Discussion moved to the more general
    topic of whether the IESG can insist or request that text reflecting
    the IESG's opinion on the subject be included as part of the
    document. While this has been done in the past for experimental
    protocols, there was a difference of opinion as to whether this
    ability could or should be expanded to include Informational RFCs.
    It was noted that the RFC Editor had implied that additional text
    would be considered. No consensus was reached.
