WG adoption is a pretty heavy action. It states that the WG has consensus to work on the document, and weighs heavily in the consensus evaluation during WGLC. If there are problems with the document, part of the adoption process should be the identification of those flaws and an agreement to address them. So bringing up those flaws during the adoption process is crucial to the process. It's also worth noting that the INTAREA working group is a special working group, with an extremely broad charter, which is moderated by the fact that in order for work to be done by the working group, the Internet Area ADs have to approve the work. So needless to say I at least am watching keenly to see if Stephen's objections are being addressed, and likely won't approve the adoption of the work if they aren't. _______________________________________________ Int-area mailing list Int-area@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/int-area
