I have a few personal comments on the charter.
In the first BOF we had an experiment aspect in the charter as well. The
new charter is pure protocol specification. I am actually interested in
two outputs from the potential WG: First, the protocol specifications
themselves will be useful for the folks building Lisp prototypes.
Second, use of the protocols allows everyone to understand the
implications of this technology. Some of the effects of Lisp will also
be similar in other, alternative designs. For instance, is the delay or
loss of some initial packets a real-world problem or not? I would like
the WG to first write a list of useful experiments and then later
publish the results.
I think the work on EID allocation guidelines for RIRs is premature at
this stage.
It would be cool to see a document on deployment incentives or an
evolution plan, similar to what Dan Jen presented in the last RRG
meeting. I don't know if you can get someone to write one.
The charter is missing an introductory paragraph that explains how this
fits to the larger picture (such as the RRG). It probably also needs to
be clearer about what's out of scope.
