I don't think anyone is interested in breaking RADIUS.  We still have
language in the charter requiring backwards compatibility with existing
RADIUS RFCs.  We may have simply changed the threshold of what we mean
by "break".

Interesting. It seems that the charter now allows us to break Radius as long as the
breakage point is below a certain threshold. How is this threshold defined and by whom?



I will also observe that the changes in the pending charter that (a)
emphasize RADIUS/Diameter interoperability and migration, (b) encourage
rationalization of attribute data models and (c) require considerations
for complex data types, were introduced during the IESG review of the
charter.  It is my understanding that these changes are not subject to
WG consensus.

So, are you saying that the IESG in its infinite wisdom is recommending that we can break Radius to achieve (a)-(c) above?
