Abstract
This memo summarizes perceived problems in the structure, function,
and processes of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). We are
attempting to identify these problems, so that they can be addressed
and corrected by the IETF community.
The problems have been digested and categorized from an extensive
discussion which took place on the 'problem-statement' mailing list
from November 2002 to September 2003. The problem list has been
further analyzed in an attempt to determine the root causes at the
heart of the perceived problems: The result will be used to guide the
next stage of the process in the Problem Statement working group
which is to recommend the structures and processes that will carry
out the corrections.
