Hi Andrew:

Nicely spotted, thanks very much!

I've submitted the correct file to the meeting materials manager,
but it takes quite a while for it to update.

Meantime, here are the DRAFT minutes ...

DRAFT-00 Minutes of the IPFIX meeting at IETF 85 in Atlanta
About 22 people present
Scribes: Chris Inacio, Nevil Brownlee
Meeting chair: Juergen Quittek, Nevil Brownlee

Juergen opened the meeting, Nevil gave the IPFIX status update:
  - Flow Selection draft is in AD Review, progressing
  - IE-Doctors in AD Followup: in response to DISCUSS, IANA Actions
    will be moved to 5102bis, IE-Doctors will need normative
    reference to it
  - Aggregation draft: on IESG telechat agenda, will need a new
    revision before going to RFC Editor
  - No work done on Mediation-Protocol since IETF 84, expect
    some progress by IETF 86 (Orlando)

Brian presented our 5101bis and 5102bis drafts
- Benoit Claise commented that IPR needs to be re-asserted in
   bis documents, Cisco legal will do that for these two
- 5102 (IPFIX Information Model)
   - WGLC ran from 14 to 22 October, lots of comments
   - Section 5, Information element Categories, is no longer
     needed, proposedto replace it with stub pointing to IANA
     registry
   - Benoit suggests a summary/history as well as that pointer,
     including text about categories of IEs, so that 5102 remains
     a complete description of our model
   - Meeting agreed to this, to be done in next revision
- 5101 (IPFIX Protocol)
   - No updates since IETF 84, authors working on next revision
   - AD comment: we don't have to interop all features of
     protocol to advance standards level
   - List comment about byte ordering, Brian will add a reference
     for that
   - WGLC to start when document is stable

Paul Aitken presented (via Meetecho) the Link Layer IEs draft.
- WGLC for this started 15 Oct 12; it will end after next week's
   (bi-monthly) IEEE 802.3 meeting
- Juergen commented that the draft has a VXLAN I-D as an
   Informative Reference
- Brian pointed out that several IPFIX IEs cover VLANs, we
   need to check that the proposed VXLAN IEs will not cause
   interoperation with them
- Paul will find a VLAN-tag expert to check that
- Will need a new revision, when that's stable Nevil will
   submit to IESG

Paul presented the MIB Variable Export draft
- Most issues have now been resolved
- 'Extended Field Specifiers' introduced as a good way to
   represent OIDs in an IPFIX template.  Clear agreement
   in the room on this
- Field Lengths in the EFS were discussed.  Brian asked
   how variable-length fields would be handled?
- New version needed, WGLC when draft is stable

Paul presented two new individual drafts
- IE Equivalence
   - Addresses question "how does a collector know that a
     Private IE is equivalent to an IANA IE?"
   - Four possible methods explored, Paul proposes exporting
     an 'equivalence table'
   - How long does an exporter need to keep sending the table?
   - Benoit suggests using URIs instead, as Chris proposed
     at IETF 84.  Brian wants to see Chris' draft about that
     completed first
- Recent IANA IE Registry Changes
   - Summarises changes to the registry over about the last
     18 months; this is a useful document
   - Brian pointed out that IE 353 should have an upper-case
     O in 'octets'
   - Benoit asked whether these changes meet the guidelines
     set out in IE-Doctors?
   - A general review of IE semantics would be 'a good thing'
   - Nevil will ask for volunteers on the list

Any Other Business discussions
- IPFIX Milestones
   - Exporting MIB Objects and Mediation Protocol
     changed to July 2013
   - Aim for Mediation Protocol WGLC in April 2013
- Interop
   - Interop testing is useful whether or not we need it
     to advance standards level
   - Brian's Open Source implementation (ripfix) is now
     available, he will post instructions on how to use it
     to the list
  - IPFIX work in other WGs
    - Benoit reported on RADIUS Accounting draft
    - Brian commented that ALTO have a new draft that describes
      exporting values as text strings; he would like others
      to read it and comment on the IPFIX list

The meeting finished at 1435

Cheers again, Nevil
