Glad to hear Dick back in this list. Dirk, could we immediately move
to form the AX 2.0 WG (hopefully with a membership that is
representative)? I believe (and not because I am a member) that the AX
2.0 WG needs to be the party addressing this issue because of the
necessity of preserving some coherence within the AX spec. The WG
should make a formal proposal to either move this into the umbrella of
OIDF or take it out, and get the bless for spec-council for either
option on a reasonable time frame.

We have numerous speculative threads in this issue. At this point, the
very possibility of a result (whatever it may be) appears to me as an
unqualified win.
