Dear WG,

After listening to the feedback on the mailinglist the chairs have discussed 
with our AD on cleaning up our milestone list.

One important thing to mention is that we have a clear charter on what this WG 
should have as it’s priority, and that is documents that have a clear consensus 
on being a standard.
While we are open on discussing informational documents that seek inclusion in 
the EPP extensions registry, informational documents should not be in our 
milestones.
With that in mind, and the knowledge that we have a small working group, our AD 
wants us to keep the number of simultaneous milestones down to under 10.
This means we will drop some milestone items we don’t seem to have enormous 
consensus on how to standardize now, but they may reappear on our milestones 
after we have completed other items on the list.

In concrete this means:

We will delete the following documents from our milestones as they have become 
informational documents after discussion:
-draft-ietf-regext-tmch-func-spec
-draft-xie-eppext-nv-mapping

We will delete the following documents from our milestones for now as there is 
no clear consensus on a one standard fits all for now, and we don’t see that 
change in a very near future, or because we have items with a higher 
priority/more traction:
-draft-ietf-eppext-idnmap
-draft-gould-idn-table
-draft-cira-regext-idn
-draft-gould-eppext-verificationcode
Mind you: these topics may reappear on the milestones once the WG has a clear 
direction on a standard, or other items on our list have been resolved.

The draft-ietf-regext-bundling-registration is a strange exception.
We will keep this in our milestones for now as there seems to be traction and 
motivation, but the chairs believe that since the new version of this draft 
only describes strict bundling, it does not create any new one standard fits 
all, and only describes one way of bundling implemented by a number of 
registries/registrars, and should therefor be an informational document 
describing that practice. Pending that discussion we keep it in the millstones 
for now.

For all the other documents, we will adjust the dates as discussed.

Thank you all for your support in this discussion,

Jim and Antoin.
