USWG's goals are: 1. Meet on a regular basis to consider projects designed to improve services to users. 2. Create working groups or other focus groups to carry out projects deemed worthy of pursuing. 3. Provide a forum in which user services providers can discuss and identify common concerns. 4. Take on work to update existing FYI documents when that work does not coincide with the scope of an existing Working Group. This is an active, on-going working group in the USV area of the IETF. It is the spawning ground for establishing other working groups in this area. Goals and Milestones: Nov 99 Submit I-D to update FYI 1 to IESG for publication as an Informational RFC.
