It does take work, but many participants must surely have opinions on what the Recommendation would ideally be, according to their understanding of the goals, constraints etc. Those views have resulted from a great deal of work reading RRG messages, proposal documents - and for some, writing such messages and documents. The amount of work required to write these opinions up so others can know and discuss them is small, I think, compared to the work many of us have already put into this field. I wasn't suggesting that we try to write something which we think many people, or even a single other person, would agree upon. I suggest people write what they personally think would be a good Recommendation, according to their own clearly stated set of goals. Even if this is incomplete - such as only concerning a subset of the proposals - I think this would be a better contribution to the field than to write nothing. - Robin _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
