We used the last week to discuss the BOF proposal with our responsible
AD and with people from other standards groups.

The result is a revised BOF proposal, that already provides an outline
for the charter of the new WG.  This charter now defines a more
specific focus for the WG til the end of 2010.  I think that is good
because the IETF is much better in handling focused, specific work
items than in grand, boil-the-ocean efforts.  If we succeed, we can
always recharter to attack additional items.

A bit more background: The goal of this BOF proposal is to get a BOF
going in Hiroshima, the week of Nov 9.  The goal of the BOF is to
demonstrate that we have enough interest ("energy") and enough focus
to solve a credible problem in a defined amount of time; this will
enable us to charter a WG following the BOF.  Not all of you will be
physically present in Hiroshima; that's another reason why it is
important to hear your opinions on this mailing list.  The charter
proposal can and will change until Hiroshima, and now is the time to
influence it and to express your support.  Also, the IETF is generally
driven by Internet-Draft documents, so it would be good to hear on the
list what you will be able to contribute.

I'm looking forward to your feedback.

Gruesse, Carsten
