Hi, Hannes, I appreciate the idea of a 'ping' to the group. I also appreciate that everyone has their area of focus, and not all things brought to a WG receive the attention that's needed to move them forward.
IETFers have discussed incentive systems to encourage people to read things that 'need to be reviewed', but let's not discuss that here. Until we have that or an alternative - in the absence of positive feedback - items should not move forward in a WG based on silence as implicit approval. If there is an absence of positive community support - either explicit, or implicit by the community's lack of interest and silence - IMO, the best path forward is to *revert* an item to individual submission, even if it's on the WG charter.
