Dave, please read the drafts. We aren't going to embed
the whole spec in the charter, surely?


Brian,

A charter is supposed to explain its basis.

A charter that sets up this sort of critical deployment dependency --
especially when there has been such extended delays gaining deployment and use
for the thing being depended on -- needs to explain the basis for that
dependency.


Please read Section 2 of the WG Guidelines document.

I personally believe that the revised charter fully meets those criteria, but like quite a few other charters does so by reference to specific documents. I don't plan to argue the point further, since I don't see anyone else chiming in with you.
