I seriously question the need to spin up a working group just for this
one proposal. I realize that there is significant controversy over the
need for this extension, but having a working group won't change that
fact.
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.
Well, OK. If that seems to be what the IESG wants to do, then fine. In that
case I will move on to commenting on the charter...
