Excerpts from Christian Vogt on Wed, Apr 22, 2009 04:03:39PM -0700:
My main point, though, was that we are talking about two orthogonal
issues -- conflicting configuration and address selection.  This
holds independently of the fact that an application may let the
operating system accomplish part or all of address selection.

Whether we take this to mean that both issues should be tackled in
the same working group is a different story.  I personally don't see
the orthogonality of the two issues as a reason not to tackle both
issues in the same working group.  We just ought to be aware that
the issues are separate, and the charter should describe them as
such.  This said, there might be work-load- or work-scope-specific
reasons that suggest splitting the work into separate working
groups, like those brought up by Lars, Sam, and Scott.  Those
arguments should be discussed as well.

Exactly.  Thanks.
