With due respect Brian, you're talking past the issue. If Cisco, the company, intends to back away from maintaining the core TACACS+ standard in favor of the IETF's process then I see no problem with bringing the protocol into the IETF process. If not, then only sorrow will come from the IETF creating a _competing standard with the same name_.
