 Goals and Milestones:

   Done         Submit BCP that defines unicast UDP behavioral requirements for 
                NATs to IESG 

   Done         Submit a BCP that defines TCP behavioral requireents for NATs 
                to IESG 

   Done         Submit a BCP that defines ICMP behavioral requirements for NATs 
                to IESG 

   Done         Submit informational that discusses current NAT traversal 
                techniques used by applications 

   Done         Submit BCP that defines multicast UDP 

   Done         Submit revision of RFC 3489 to IESG behavioral requirements for 
                NATs to IESG 

   Done         Submit informational document for rfc3489bis test vectors 

   Done         Submit experimental document that describes how an application 
                can determine the type of NAT it is behind 

   Done         Submit BCP document for DCCP NAT behavior 

   Dec 2008       Submit BCP document for SCTP NAT behavior 

   Dec 2008       Submit standards-track relay protocol 

   Jan 2009       Determine relative prioritization of the four translation 
                cases. 

   Mar 2009       Submit standards-track document for relaying of a TCP 
                bytestream 

   Mar 2009       Submit standard-track document of an IPv6 relay protocol to 
                IESG 

   Mar 2009       Determine what solutions(s) and components are needed to solve 
                each of the four cases. Create new milestones for the 
                solution(s) and the components. 

   Sep 2009       Target for first solution to be submitted to IESG for 
                publication as standards track RFC.
