Well, the IESG discussed this informally, and decided that a working group is the best approach. At some level, we ought never need a working group for most things: WEIRDS, REPUTE, OAUTH, ALTO.... This one is being done in the manner that the RAI area has been handling many of its working groups: short-lived, focused groups, and many of them. You'll note that the total time between the message I posted this morning and the chartering of the working group is likely to be three weeks. That's not a lot of difficulty involved with spinning up a working group.
