First, I want to say that in the room in Quebec, there was a *STRONG* feeling

than 4409bis, and 5321bis in particular, *FAR* outweighed the benefit of doing
the work. Though Dave only +1'ed, he expressed rather strong feelings in the
room on this topic.
Yup.
To clarify: A narrow effort to document some wg historical effort/discussion is
a benign task and I'm happy for it to happen, within the wg or not. I applaud
efforts by people who want to record things for posterity, on the off chance
that folks in the future care about learning from the past.
My strong feelings that Pete cited were about any proposal to do serious
technical (development/refinement) work.
YAM was created to advance some specs, with an explicit requirement that this
include only a minimum of technical effort. That effort has been defeated by
circumstances and we should let it die.
Anything that goes beyond that effort, such as a generic "fixup" effort on specs
-- a la, DRUMS-ish -- has nothing to do with YAM and needs separate
justification and chartering.
