10. The IESG briefly discussed the topic of character sets and
   internationalization issues. While the topic is deemed important to
   the community, the level of involvement by the IETF was unclear,
   especially in light of exisiting standards organizations already
   working on the issue. It was noted that the topic had architectural
   implications that should be addressed prior to initiating an
   engineering effort.

11. A review of the disposition of the TN3270E LUname_Print document
   was discussed, and the conclusion was that it should NOT be published
   at this time.
