All

As Brian and I have stated a few times, and Eric our AD has supported, the
plan with this draft is once the authors
are ready is to take it to WGLC, and then park it while we wait for
implementations, and some signs of interoperability
testing.  Once we and the working group feel there has been reasonable
progress, we will un-park the document.

At the time we un-park it to move it to the IESG we can have the discussion
about Standards Track, Experimental, or
Informational.  To have that discussion now serves no real purpose (in my
mind).

The chairs will however hold the document status as something for the WG to
decide on.

thanks
