# IETF Sessions

The IETF VCON working group meets at each IETF plenary plus occasional interims. Sessions are recorded; minutes, agendas, and slides are posted on the [IETF datatracker](https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/vcon/meetings/) and stay there permanently.

If you want the canonical record of where the spec is — what's settled, what's contested, what's about to merge — these recordings are it.
