This memo summarizes perceived problems in the structure, function,
and processes of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).  We are
attempting to identify these problems, so that they can be addressed
and corrected by the IETF community.

The problems have been digested and categorized from an extensive
discussion which took place on the \'problem-statement' mailing list
from November 2002 to September 2003.  The problem list has been
further analyzed in an attempt to determine the root causes at
the heart of the perceived problems: The result will be used to guide
the next stage of the process in the Problem Statement working group
which is to recommend the structures and processes that will carry
out the corrections.

This document is a product of the Problem Statement Working Group of
the IETF.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG.  Requests to be
added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should
