1. Introduction
At the Amsterdam IETF meeting, we held a BOF, entitled the "IPDecide
BOF", on the process and progress of the IPng activities.
("IPng" stands for "IP, the next generation". The IPDecide BOF was
chaired by Brian Carpenter. Minutes are available in the IETF
directories, with the file name .)
The IPDecide BOF explored several facets of the IPng process, such
as:
"What is the basis for choosing the next generation IP (i.e., what
are the technical requirements and decision criteria)."
