That sounds good to me.

Please not though that I didn't care about the language, my only questions were:

1. Why not using an existing project?
2. How interoperable had you planned to be?

It seems these questions have more or less been answered so I'm fine :)

Right. IETF specs cannot have an official reference implementation.  The
best we can do, in this case, is to have a number of implementations
available that strive to a) implement the spec as completely as possible
and b) interoperate with one another as best as possible.  The
"reference implementation" then becomes a union of everything these
available alternatives seem to get right.

We made a mistake calling our stuff a "reference implementation" but it
was an honest one born out of frustration trying to come up with a name
our lawyers would actually clear (naming the damn thing was actually
holding up our ability to open source it).
