+1 on getting it published.

I should point out that the emphasis should be on the "historically"
in "WG has historically been one of the places where documents go to
die".

Recently this working group has been munching though and getting
documents published.

2012: 1 RFC
2013: 1 RFC
2014: 1 RFC
2015: 3 RFC, 4 documents are with the IESG / RFC Ed.

We shouldn't be figuring out how useful a WG is by the number of
documents published, but I don't think DNSOP is still where documents
go to die...

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
