[Old-standards] slowing down

Hi all,

It now seems like we've slowed down a bit.  Perhaps it's the onset of 
the holiday season or perhaps it's because we've narrowed down the field 
of documents to consider.  As you may have noticed, I poked a couple of 
lists regarding the mail related standards.  I think we need a telnet 
expert and someone to speak on token ring before hitting the IETF with 
the list of docs (it's still quite large - for those keeping score,
Removed: 40, Still around: 79, Total: 119).  I've done some very basic 
telnet review based on linux and cisco and haven't spotted anything 
obvious, but then I don't use tn3270 to get to my Cisco ;-)  Anyone know 
of a good pointer?

I'd like to start to discuss next steps.  As I mentioned above, I'd like 
to send a note to the IETF containing the current list of candidates to 
be removed, but we should be hitting all relevant lists.  If you have a 
favorite (like telnet or token ring or appletalk) please either contact 
them directly or let me know and I will.

Thanks,

Eliot
