    1. The IESG approved the minutes of the October 26 teleconference.
    Coya to place in public directories.

    2. The IESG deferred action on Transition Mechanisms for IPv6 Hosts
    and IPNG Routers <draft-ietf-ngtrans-trans-mech-01.txt> due to the
    current text pertaining to use of host tables. The Internet-Draft
    needs to be re-issued with additional text reinforcing the fact
    that while host tables may be used during transition to IPv6, they
    do make renumbering more difficulty, and their use is discouraged in
    a production environment.

    When the updated Internet-Draft is submitted and available, the
    IESG will review the text and continue the balloting process
    electronically.

    3. The IESG approved the reclassification of RFC1137 (Mapping between

    Internet-Drafts:

    o Enhanced Mail System Status Codes <draft-ietf-notary-status-04.txt>

    technical summary to be provided by Scott.

    Working Group in the Network Management Area. Coya will hold off

    Writers Working Group, jointly chartered in the Operational

    14. The IESG decided to withdraw its recommendation that the
    SIP/SIPP/IPNG set of Internet-Drafts be published as Historic RFCs,
    though the documents should be held pending further action. The
    IPNG Area directors will confer with the WG Chairs and document
    authors. It was suggested that the individual document authors seek
    publication as RFCs if desired, and not handle as a set.

    Coya to notify RFC Editors and ask them not to publish the
    Internet-Drafts as Historic RFCs at this time.
