Description of Working Group:

The major purpose of this group is to coordinate BGP deployment and
application in the current Internet.
 
It intends to create a forum for BGP users to share BGP deployment
experiences and also provide a channel for users to communicate with
router vendors who implemented or who are implementing BGP.  It also intends
to discuss BGP policy application and coordinate policy implementation
in the current Internet routing environment which includes defining the
usage of policy, defining a mechanism to share policy information, etc.
 

 Goals and Milestones:

   Done         Post as an Internet-Draft, a report of BGP deployment 
                status. 

   Done         Post an Internet-Draft, defining a mechanism to share 
                policy information between Administrative Domains. 

   JUL 97       Define the issues and the needs of policy routing in the 
                current Internet architecture. Discuss how BGP policy 
                routing capability applies to Internet policy routing 
                needs. A document may be generated on this topic.
