ISN Working Group Minutes
Tuesday, December 5th, 1995
Dallas, Texas

The ISN Working Group was convened at 1pm by Jodi Ito, co-chair.  
Jennifer Sellers, co-chair, held an interim meeting at Tel-Ed
in Ft. Lauderdale the previous week and was unable to attend this
IETF.  There were no changes to the published agenda so introductions 
were the first order of business.  

The revised ISN charter was reviewed and the date for the FYI RFC
describing the document repository was set for Mar. 96.

There was some discussion regarding how to better disseminate
the work of the ISN and User Services area of the IETF.  Some suggestions
were to have them located in Compuserv's forum, Cisco's education
archives, and ISOC's K-12 page.

Next the FYI 22 update was discussed and several attendees had some 
suggestions:  
      -	explain the differences between on-line services like
	AOL and Compuserv and the Internet
      -	talk about some of the technical security considerations like
	firewalls;  talk about security policy issues such as access 
	control management and password revocations; maybe give
	some examples of security policies
      - include questions to ask ISPs like how many modems do
	you have, what is your user to modem ratio?, what are
	your "tech support/help desk" hours? What kind of connection
	do you have to the Internet?
The document will be submitted to the IESG soon for publication as an RFC.  

The ISN document repository will be moving to Merit and the new
location and move details will be posted to the mailing list. The
FYI document describing the repository will be done by Mar. 96.

The directory of educational projects idea was re-visited and
revitalized.  Rough consensus was reached on the basic fields of the
directory and the general scope of the project.  Richard Perlman
volunteered to design the prototype.  The data elements will be posted
to the list for discussion.  After substantial discussion among the
group, it was agreed that it would be a 3 month experimental project.
April Marine vounteered that someone from NASA would monitor the
submission during the experimental period.  A status report would be
provided to the group in March and the final analysis done in June.

Sepi Boroumand continued the discussion on her idea for a "how to create
a help desk" paper.  The attendees had many suggestions and comments and
Sepi will continue the discussion on-line.

The meeting finally adjourned at 3:10pm
