Sure - but that is not in contradiction to my statement above. The IETF has a
long history of creating WG's to work on different alternatives. In such
circumstances, WG's simply serve to create standards in an _open_ way; they
do not in any way imply any sort of official IETF preference.

The community has been discussing these issues for years, going back to
things like Multi6. It's been discussed to death already.
