Aside from the motivation to provide a useful technical specification

is important that significant infrastructural elements of the

IETF working group output. This is our historical record. We would be
doing a disservice to future enquiring minds if we chose to do
otherwise.

It does beg the question however, why is this even being discussed in
an IETF WG if its not expected to be IETF WG product?
My assumption was that there's value in awareness in this venue, and
that any competent shepherd will require positive indications of review
from the relevant technical community, and this is it. Apologies if
people feel differently, though; despite appearances to the contrary,
I'm not simply on a mission to drown everybody in mail.
Following discussion here and off-list with various people, it seems
clear to me that the best path forward for this document is the
independent submission stream. This worked well for 7108 which is
similar to this document in various respects.
So to clear up the lingering ambiguity, the authors are not requesting
adoption of this document by the working group; we'll pick it up with
the ISE. I will be bothering those who have demonstrated an opinion in
due course for reviews for Nevil.
