Hi,

I have some doubts about the sentence "This includes, *but is not limited to:*".

On the one hand, it leaves room for the adoption of documents that address topics not mentioned in the charter, but which are then deemed relevant by working group members.

On the other hand, a loosely defined scope could lead to big discussions about documents that address topics that some members consider out-of-scope, while others do not. Such discussions have sometimes stalled the WG's activity and the document development process for months.

Honestly, I can't decide what is best. :-(

In any case, I would add the following to the bulleted list in the "Scope of Work" section:

"/Best practices for the deployment and operation of EPP and RDAP, including recommendations for security, scalability, and interoperability. Such documents shall be grounded in operational experience from at least two independent deployments and may be published on the Informational or BCP track as appropriate./"


Best,

Mario

This message begins a two week period for the Working Group to review a 
proposed new charter.

As you know, we have both a new Area and a new Area Director for our working 
group as of IETF125.  Mohamed Boucadair has previously introduced himself and 
our new area: Operations and Management Area (ops).

As part of this move it is being proposed to update our charter.  After 
reviewing the work we have been doing and looking forward to work that may come 
our way, as well as alignment with our new area, on behalf of the IESG Med is 
proposing the following charter for our consideration:

        https://github.com/IETF-OPS-AD/Charters/blob/main/regext.md

The goal is to have this revised charter in place before IETF126.  We have a 
pretty tight schedule in order to achieve this, which looks like this:

   - 22/05: Begin WG Review of Proposed Charter
   - 05/06: Consolidate the final version to place in the IESG Telechat of 
2026-06-18
   - 18/06: IESG internal review + release required revisions to address IESG 
comments
   —  * IETF Community review
   - 02/07: IESG final review

Our working group review begins now and will be open for 2 weeks, until Friday, 
5 June.

Please review this proposed charter and bring any questions or comments you 
have to the mailing list.

Thanks in advance for your prompt review and consideration!

Antoin, Jorge, and Jim
