I feel that the charter as orignally proposed on September 23rd was a
good charter and should be allowed to proceed. Naysayers should simply
get off the mailing list and form their own group.
We waste way to much bandwidth on irrelevant debate and noise making and
should simply allow the work to move forward. If people have other
alternative solutions, they should not hold back progress on this
clearly chartered work and go pursue their own agendas elsewhere.
At the worst we may create another unused protocol ... However if not
started, it will not ever be available as an option. The IETF is a
darwinian process, we should allow the ideas to be formalized and
documented and then leave it to the market forces to determine adoption.
