1) The primary charter goal would be create a RFC4880bis document.
a) At the end of that process, we would either re-charter, or close.
b) Other documents (informational or bcp) MAY be entertained by the
WG, but are not required for the WG to complete it's task, nor will
their progress "keep the WG from closing"
I am fine with that.
I am a bit curious why the IETF seems to have a policy to have only
short living working groups. A hint to a document explaining that would
be appreciated.
There isn't a written policy on it.
But from personal expierience people get burned out after a while. When
a WG first starts there is usually a lot of energy, but that fades, so
groups that last a long time tend to attrophy.
Shalom-Salam,
Werner
