We currently have two problem statements to discuss for adoption.
Wei is merging 'mine' into his. (Note mine was done as a variant of

For folks new to IETF processes, it might be worth explaining that
contributions about an existing draft are usually anchored in specific
suggestions for adding/changing/removing text. This ensures that a)
whatever concern is being raised is clearly linked to a specific part of
the draft, and b) provides concrete, candidate text to evaluate. This
quite reliably develops movement towards document completion.
Sometimes, this process does not converge to the satisfaction of one or
another participant. Their usual response, then, is what I did: I wrote
an alternative. In my case it was explicitly derivative, with a goal of
getting either chosen or merged. In other cases, it might be completely
independent.
Working groups often get bogged down debating concepts. Having concrete
text to review, debate, and decide about tends to mitigate against the
infinite delay that staying at too high a level often produces.
