Is there a particular reason why the proposed charter does not mention 
EAP-TTLS?

I know very little about different EAP types, but as a potential 
operator and user of EAP, I'd definitely want to see focus on 
something like EAP-TTLS.

Given that EAP-TTLS seems to be becoming an industry standard in 
certain scenarios, it would be useful to clarify the relation of the 
work of this proposed WG wrt EAP-TTLS in the charter.  The relation 
may already be obvious to those who've been working on that space 
more, but as an EAP user, I'd like to make it explicit to ensure folks 
are on the same page..
