Hi Ed,

This charter seems to fly in the fase of the
traditional IETF charter style, wherein a WG was
deemed to have a set end point. Develop
guidelines, publish documents and serve as a
clearinghouse are terms that engender more
activity but dont indicate progress. (A long
time ago, in a government job, I was taught
terms that guaranteed one would never fail a
performance review - like participate in and
so on. The terms here fall into the same category.)

item 4 and item 5
This is kind of like saying that one of my
duties is show up for work. Isnt #4 just
saying the WG should act as WG? Protocol
maintenance might just mean adding DNSSEC key
algorithm numbers or it might mean a new zone
transfer protocol. The latter is something I
wouldnt think this group is wanting to take on.
(I had written that for 4, but then I saw 5 gave
me the same impression. In the sense I do see 4
and 5 are different, if I have the same
reaction, they are two general to be good
charter items unless the goal is to have a never ending WG.)
Item 4 ("extensions or protocol maintenance")
allows the working group to improve DNS. I am
not sure whether that covers DNSSEC. It is like have a mini-DNSng. :-)

S. Moonesamy
