Hello 6lo-nfc authors & group,

I'm trying to determine the state of draft-ietf-6lo-nfc.

What I can see is that it got to IESG review, got comments criticizing
its choice of words (both around "security" and on marketing-material)
and lack of clarity in interaction with lower layer specs (especially
their public availability) -- and updates into late 2020 -- and then
nothing more.

I am a quiet bystander in this group (merely consuming its output), and
do not have concrete implementation plans for 6lo-nfc yet, but it's on
my list of "would like to play with".

Is there a roadmap for 6lo-nfc to go on? Will the authors resume work,
if not, will the chairs find new authors to finish it, or will the draft
be abandoned even after having reached WG consensus?

BR
Christian
