Re: [Emu] Thoughts on Password-based EAP Methods
I see it a bit differently since I was at many EAP meetings where EAP
method authors wanted to work on standards track EAP methods.

Part of the problem with EAP methods is that people should have
started to standardize them within the IETF several years ago.
Unfortunately, there was no interest by some of the EAP method
authors nor from the EAP WG chairs to allow that.
In fact, the IETF was on track to standardize EAP methods back as
recently as 2001, within the PPPEXT WG. It was as part of that
program that EAP-TLS was first published as an Experimental RFC, and
EAP-TTLSv0 was put on the standards track.
The decision to remove standards track EAP methods from the PPPEXT WG
charter was made by the IESG, not by the authors of EAP methods, or
the EAP WG chairs. As I recall, there was considerable opposition to
that decision at the time.
