Description of Working Group:

	TP/IX is a new version of the IP, TCP, and UDP protocols, to
	advance the Internet technology to the scale and performance of
	the next generation of internetwork technology. TP/IX has been
	assigned the IP version number 7.

	The working group is chartered to review the TP/IX and RAP
	protocols, evaluate issues arising during product development
	and deployment planning, and to document problems and
	explanations for any parts of the coexistance with IPv4 not
	covered directly in the TP/IX-IPv4 interoperation design.

	The group will also be the initial forum for development of the RAP
	protocol while it is experimental; this work will need to be moved
	to the Routing Area when it is to be advanced.

 Goals and Milestones:

   Done         Present the TP/IX (formerly IPv7) and the RAP protocols to 
                the IETF Plenary. 

   Done         Post the TP/IX Protocol and the RAP protocol as 
                Experimental RFCs. 

   Done         Hold Working Group meeting to discuss additional 
                definitions. Prepare criteria to be met prior to 
                standardization. 

   Done         Hold Working Group meeting to evaluate the TP/IX and RAP 
                protocols for Proposed Standard.
