First, I¹ve added some text in the Introduction:
This document also includes the recommendation from the research
group to the IETF. The group did not reach consensus on this
recommendation, thus the recommendation reflects the decision of
the co-chairs. The group did reach consensus that the overall
document should be published.
The last sentence is a bit presumptive at present. ;-)
Second, please recall this text from the top of section 17:
The remainder of this section describes the rationale and decision
of the co-chairs, and does not reflect the consensus of the group.
Third, I¹ll point out once again that under the rules of the IRTF, as I
understand them, the group¹s process and results are at the discretion of
the co-chairs. It¹s very true that the decision has been made by the
co-chairs and as such I¹m trying to be very careful and emphasize that this
is not the consensus of the group. However, it is still the output and
result of the group.
Regards,
Tony
