        In Section 2.1, I would add in specifically-inappropriate criteria:

        - Accept an I+D for the merely fact to have a more structured
discussion in the WG.

Folks,

There is now an Internet Draft, based on Adrian's's slides, intended to
document common practice in the adoption of working group drafts:

Title:   Creating an IETF Working Group Draft
Status:  http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-crocker-id-adoption

Abstract:
   The productive output of IETF working groups is documents, as
   mandated by the working group's charter.  Working groups develop
   these documents based on initial input of varying levels of maturity.
   An initial working group draft might be a document already in wide
   use, or it might be a blank sheet, wholly created by the workiing
   group, or it might represent any level of maturity in between.  This
   document discusses the process of creating formal working group
   drafts that are targeted for publication.



Although it is not intended for a standards-track or bcp publication, it
would be helpful to have discussion that moves the document to represent
good agreement among the community.
