Subject: [Secdispatch] Requesting agenda time @ IETF 111 for FT OWE

Hello all,

We would like to request agenda time at IETF 111 to present our discuss FT OWE:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-henry-ft-owe/

Optimistic Wireless Encryption is defined in RFC 8110. This proposal augments RFC 8110 by proposing a Fast Transition mode (similar in concept to FT defined in 802.11), that allows a client to pre-negotiate OWE, through a first WiFI access point (AP), with a second AP. We believe that this mode is useful to 1) accelerate the transition from one AP to the next (by avoiding that time is wasted negotiating new keys at the time of the jump) and 2) provide a reasonable indication that both APs have a trusted relationship over the wire.

Thanks!

Jerome
