Anyone can write an individual draft at any[1] time. Having thoughts specified in a concrete proposed specification can help people to understand the proposal, help people provide suggested changes, and prevent duplication of effort attempting to describe the same idea in multiple email messages. A side effect of a better understanding of a given proposal may (or may not) be a decision to not adopt it as a WG item, but that risk does not seem like a reason to not write an individual draft. -Ben [1] submission is blacked out for a couple weeks prior to in-person IETF meetings, but that doesn't keep you from writing. _______________________________________________ OAuth mailing list OAuth@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/oauth
