After watching the traffic on this, I'm thinking a memorial page is
perhaps not the first place to focus attention. Instead, write a memorial
RFC for each person you think made a significant contribution to the IETF.
The RFC Editorial process will provide some vetting on quality. Use
Informational, Historic(!) or create a new class.
The memorial page can then list those who have memorial RFCs written for
them.
OBITWG will need a charter, chair and mailing list.
I like Steve's idea, however, not exactly like the idea to set up a
permanent working group. Perhaps it would be better to form a "working
group" case by case, each "wg" focusing only on the merits of one
individual. However, I am not sure, that a wg would be a right form, anyhow,
I would prefer individual submissions, may be more than one
submission/person.
