Yes, but that's not how the original message in this thread was worded:

| Please reply to the list:

|   review multiple versions of the draft?
|   - Are you willing to contribute text to the draft?
|   - Would you like to co-author it?

True, you might interpret "the draft" to mean "the WG draft" as opposed
to "the starting point" I-D given in that e-mail, but it wasn't
sufficiently clear.  Now that you've clarified, my answers are:

 - I am willing to review multiple versions of a WG I-D on labelled
   IPsec, and to contribute text.

 - I am not willing to co-author.

 - I do believe that labelled IPsec via IKE extensions is a reasonable
   activity for the WG.

   However, I do not believe the the proposed starting point is
   appropriate as is.  I believe that an appropriate labelled-IPsec-via-
   IKE-extensions work item should address interoperability, which means
   at a minimum that for explicit labelling in IKE we should have a DOI
   agreement sub-protocol (i.e., both peers must understand that they
   have a common DOI or that they don't).

   I'm also interested in proposals that do CERT-based implicit
   labelling, but such proposals are probably more appropriately pursued
   elsewhere (e.g., PKIX WG).
