Reported by Dan Long/BBN

Minutes of the User Connectivity Working Group (UCP)

Dan Long reported that Tom Sandoski of ConcertNet has released both a
curses and X-windows interface to his freeware Trouble Ticket System on
ftp.concert.net in the pub/tickets directory.

There are now 50 NOCs listed in the Network Service Center Phonebook,
maintained at NEARnet.  Finger access is available for peer NOC's and a
publicly-searchable subset of the data will be announced soon.

Most of the meeting was devoted to refining the description of
information that Paul Zawada has compiled for handing off tickets from
one NSC to another.  Several organizations have expressed interest in
standardizing these handoffs.  Paul will revise his ASN.1 version and
Kaj Tesink will draft a specification of how to encode this information
in email messages.
