Since it's IETF week, and the RDDP WG is not meeting,
I thought I'd report on the status of the WG's drafts.
This is what I (as your WG chair) believe the status
to be - please send me any corrections.

Problem Statement and Architecture Drafts - Both are in
	the RFC Editor Queue.  The RFC Editor has been actively
	editing them, as queries on editing issues have been
	seen recently, so RFC publication should happen
	soon (for some value of "soon" ;-) ).

All 6 remaining drafts (Applicability, Security, RDMAP,
	DDP, MPA, and SCTP) are in Expert Review by our
	Area Director (Jon Peterson).  In discussion with
	Jon, we (Jon and yours truly) have decided to take
	the 	Applicability and Security drafts forward to
	IETF Last Call and the IESG first, and then follow
	up with the other 4 drafts.  A new version of the
	Applicability draft will be needed before IETF Last
	Call, and a new version of the security draft will
	probably be needed.  I hope to get a complete set
	of comments and instructions to the authors of
	these two drafts this week or early next week.

Thanks,
--David
