Thomas,
The WG chairs may correct me if I misunderstood, but at the last AAA WG
meeting it was evident that even work clearly on the current charter, like
Mobile IPv6 Application (extension), do not get taken up by the WG. At least
not before the current work is finished, and maybe the WG is re-chartered
etc. So it seems hopeless to even think about work on areas outside, or
bordering the current charter.
I think the URP WG should be chartered ASAP and AAAv6 taken there as a
possible solution. Where can I find the current proposal for the URP
charter?
With regards,
Jarno
