I would be happy to trim it back.  The IETF doesn't like charters which grant too much leeway to willy-nilly avoid backwards compatibility.  Not that we would, since all the people currently writing drafts run products that need to interoperate with the existing world - but it helps turn away proposed new work that wants to break everything if you can point to the charter and say "we promised not to do that".

> Under "The working group will maintain relationships with other working groups” I would propose adding “CalConnect” as a place to collaborate with, too.

Yep - for sure.  I thought about that - just wanted to avoid the complexity of setting up a formal liaison, so I'm not sure how the IESG will feel about listing a collaborator for which there's no formal arrangement.  Happy to put CalConnect in there and run it up the flagpole and see.
