We will have a call at 9ET tomorrow.

A proposed agenda

1) Glossary (sec 2.3 in strawman) 
- discuss terms and whether it should be in a different place in the doc
2) Modification to arch since OGF
- addition of Links as NS's
  ?  are there other NS's we should explicitly include, like switches - or is a switch a tiny network
- connection groups - NS and link set across which one can make connections
3) plans for document
structure of strawman for end of May
editors for sections
4) plans for meeting at Internet2 SMM April 27

We can adjust this at the beginning of the meeting

Attached is a first cut at a document that might be a strawman architecture doc for end of May.  It has some initial sections and a set of proposed sections. 
I attempted to describe the architecture in some detail, and included a Glossary of terms (which might be better moved to a different location - any suggestions?).

I would like to review the doc and especially the headings and glossary next Wed to see if we can come up with an agreed outline.   If we agree then we need to have editors for each section.  I propose the following from the group that has been participating  - it is a starting place for discussion.  Please suggest changes and  also please comment on whether any seems unreasonable and/or would work for you.  

1. Doc Overview [ Guy, Tomohiro, John]
2. NSI arc overview [ John, Tomohiro, Guy, Pascale, Chin, Joe, Jerry ]
3. Connections - Network and User View [ John, Joe,Tomohiro, Radek, Pascale, Aaron, Eduard]
4. NSI environments [ Radek, Joe, Guy, Joan, Jerry]
5. Reservations, resources and instantiation [Tomohiro, Chin, Evangelos, Andy Lake]
6. Negotiation [Jerry, Chin]
7. Naming [Jeroen, Aaron, Freek, John, Chin]
8. Policy, Authentication and Trust, Prioritzation, Job Control [tbd]
9. Interface description details  [Radek, Andy, Joan, Chin, Evangelos, Fred]
