I see it a bit differently since I was at many EAP meetings where EAP method authors wanted to work on standards track EAP methods.

Part of the problem with EAP methods is that people should have started to standardize them within the IETF several years ago. Unfortunately, there was no interest by some of the EAP method authors nor from the EAP WG chairs to allow that.

In fact, the IETF was on track to standardize EAP methods back as recently as 2001, within the PPPEXT WG. It was as part of that program that EAP-TLS was first published as an Experimental RFC, and EAP-TTLSv0 was put on the standards track.

The decision to remove standards track EAP methods from the PPPEXT WG charter was made by the IESG, not by the authors of EAP methods, or the EAP WG chairs. As I recall, there was considerable opposition to that decision at the time.
