> How do we establish the political coalition necessary to act? 

1. Form a political coalition.
2. Get an existing coalition such as MAAWG to take on the work.
3. Get the USISPA to take on the work http://www.usispa.org/
4. Get the USIIA to take on the work http://www.usiia.org/
5. Get the USISPA, USIIA and MAAWG to join forces and take on the work.

Choose one...

Writing the spec of a SOHO gateway could be done in the IETF because it
is primarily a technical document. It is analogous to work the IETF has
done before.
