Finding a time for the teleconference- leave at the current time - 2PM
Eastern, 11AM Pacific
how often meet? Every week if there's something for the agenda, better
to have a short call then having too much for one meeting
Publish the agenda beforehand
Every week review whether there is enough material for the next week

What contributions and proposals for the Sept. meeting?
How should we proceed?
802.1x, authentication, keys, needs to be worked out
Bob M. working on.

David Johnston - Handoff, passage of insecure data before authentication
He has a presentation and will send some material including
description of issues

Discussion about what people should work on and how contributions
should be made. It was suggested to make contributions relevant to the
MACsec draft. Antti feels it would be better to do presentations
to develop ideas first, and feels it is premature to work on a draft and
that following 802.1 processes is not necessarily desirable.

Antti - will draft something on threats

Definitions - IETF RFC 2828 - can pull definitions from.
Bob is making some new definitions. He will send list when he's done.
Dolors will look at 802.11i and 802.1aa definitions, and see what we
want to use from there.
Bob - relevant reading - analysis of authentication types by Eric Rescorla
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-iab-auth-mech-01.txt

David Nelson - didn't we already validate the model during the SG phase, and
don't we know where we are going?
His primary allegiance is to .11. Concurs that way to go forward is by
contributing to the skeleton draft and working toward a 75% vote.

Onn has ideas on header format and interfaces, which he will
contribute on the mailing list.

Bob is going to work on architecture, fleshing it out to put in draft,
and also work on the PAR for .1x

Request contributions to the mailing list be zipped

Dolors suggests that Allyn work with Marcus to develop requirements

no meeting next week, next meeting on Tuesday 8/19
