Hi Tidd and All, The General Area WGs focus on IETF processes and policies, I don't think projects are done there,
>So then would this WG also be an incubator for projects? The IETF-WG I propose is only to do with IETF processes and policies (procedures, and best practices), not incubator projects, All organisations in the world have defined Business Information System (BIS) that organises its procedure-policy, information and processes. In IETF we have the BIS as well, but I don't see a clear focused group (like in other organisation) on that updates/follow-ups on the BIS for the future. Other organisation have a management committee for this issue of procedure-updates. Therefore, a WG for this purpose is necessary for two things 1) The WG job is only to follow up with policy issues and if there is a need for update 2) so that when a memebr wants to submit a I-D for to update/replace a policy I can submit to IETF and a focused WG. Please advise or provide your comments, AB ======= From: tglassey <tglassey at earthlink.net> To: ietf at ietf.org Date: Sun, 24 Jun 2012 06:22:53 -0700 Gen Area groups also functioned as reception gateways for projects too meaning that the WG Manager in this group would be a lobbyist as well in passing new projects to other WG's once set up. So then would this WG also be an incubator for projects? Todd
