Dave,
If the proposal being promoted by Russ is chosen, then there's nothing for
this wg to do: everything that is a candidate for the wg should
automatically already be at the final level. No?
I would hope that the YAM working group exists to improve the e-mail related
RFCs.
Jari,
This might reflect continuing confusion about the purpose of the YAM working
group.
In pragmatic terms, as odd as it might seem, that is almost explicitly NOT what
the working is chartered to do.
"Full" standard is really about community acceptance, rather than being about
improving the specifications. For YAM, the focus in writing the charter was
specifically NOT to make any interesting changes. Anything that seems to call
for interesting changes is required to /disqualify/ the specification from
further consideration...
