As Murray said, running code is probably in IETF’s charter, but I have seen 
situations where that didn’t completely happen. So I have no objection to 
saying that the WG requires running, interoperable code. I suggest that 
paragraph 5 of the draft charter be replaced with:

It is expected that design proposals will be tested during the development of 
specifications. The working group will favor designs that are tested with 
running code and that demonstrate interoperability.
