Juergen:

I understand your frustration with changing topics in the interims.  

There are two parts to the change of topics in an interim: 
 a) authors deciding they need more time to prepare the documents, and
 b) WG chairs announcing this change with sufficient warning. 

When authors ask to delay to work on their technology, this is reasonable.
On this schedule of bi-weekly interims, it is challenging to make call early
enough to announce the change.   I am beginning to appreciate the IESG's
wisdom of having a 2 week break between last draft submission and the IETF
meeting.

Some people do read charters to determine what WGs are supposed to do.
If charters get out of sync, then this leads to mis-understandings. I think
it is not fair to blame those who read outdated charters.

PS: I actively tried to bring SUPA folks to I2RS interims where
    topology was on the agenda but then the agenda got changed. This
    is fine, the WG chairs can choose to set priorities. But then
    having to read "you haven't chosen to participate in progressing
    the actual work" makes me feel somewhat unhappy given that there
    is a design team and attempts to figure out what is going on in
    the past did not work out.
