RE: MASS BOF Agenda and Proposed charter

I think it would be good to be explicit that this is a standards track
WG.

If it is not a standards track WG I don't see the point.

 First, is the intent of this WG to create standard 
track RFCs?  I  
believe the MARID WG was chartered to do so.
 The draft charter specifies the goals of the working group.

 Uh, yeah, but I don't think that answers my question.

This BOF seeks to initiate the MASS working group, to produce
specifications that permit authentication of message 
headers during transit,

The charter does not state "standards track" explicitly. 
That's because the 
focus is on the technical work, rather than the status label.

I didn't realize your focus was on the label, but thought 
that you were asking 
about the content of the working group's output.
