Description of Working Group:


    The OSPF Working develops and documents extensions and bug fixes to the
    OSPF protocol, as well as documenting OSPF usage scenarios.
    The specific protocol work items area listed in the Goals and
    Milestones section below. Additional work items will require
    rechartering.
