These include how large of a change to the charter is proposed, how similar a new WG would be, what the WG wants to do, how the WG has been performing until this point, how receptive the ADs are, recent history and the phase of the moon. Without seeing specific documents / proposed charter text it is really hard to know if it is something that this WG should do. We (Ondrej and I) specifically added: "When work on currently chartered documents is complete the WG may re-charter if sufficiently pressing new work is identified. DANE is not intended to be a long-lived catch-all WG for all public key distribution in DNS issues and so will generally not adopt new work items without re-chartering." because we didn't want to just limp along, staying alive just to stay alive. Olafur and I proposed wrapping things up largely because we hadn't seen a large amount of concrete proposed work, and reviews on existing work were getting harder / it was the same set of voices[0]. Again, we are happy that people want to get work done, and we are happy to adopt new work, recharter if needed, whatever -- but this requires everyone (yes, including the chairs!) doing their bit -- for example, there has been very little discussion on draft-huque-dane-client-cert, and much of what discussion there has been is on the prefix / label. Please, can folk review the content of the document for other issues? Also, we have heard that people would like to get new work going - it is getting close to BA, so if you have work, we'd like to see some documents so that we can discuss them, please request meeting time, etc. > > It certainly comes with less baggage. > > True. > > Indeed.
