The idea that time services are important and of interest sounds
reasonable to me. Given there has been no discussion on the list, I
would offer you write an informational draft referencing the various
protocols that could benefit from such consolidation. That may
generate interest, or, upon fully understanding the concept, may
generate enough explanation of why it is not a good idea. Either way,
I would like to see some discussion, post the availability of a
thought-out roadmap.

It if for that reason that I am suggesting that all of the Time
Centric
Protocols be lumped together into a new Area specifically focused on
Digital
Evidence (DE).
The reasons are simple, the DE scope of operations is rapidly
becoming key
to many existing and emerging network use models, and its one which
needs to
be managed in cooperation with other WG's and Organizations to
insure proper
adoption of IETF workproducts.
