If it is an OPS area WG what you are proposing, then the work you 
propose should fall into OPS, don't you think? (as opposed to multiple 
areas)
If the work you propose fall into other WG, then it should go to the 
other WGs, right?

If protocols are outside the IETF, then they shouldn't be defined in the 
IETF, don't you agree?

similar comment here, if this is an OPS WG, then it should work within 
the OPS area scope
again, if the protocol is being defined in another WG, then the work 
should be done in that WG.

work outside the IETF, should be done, well, outside the IETF

i agree you should leave ARMD alone.
It is well defined and well scoped problem and it is good as it currently is

I don't think you are approaching this from the right perspective.
This is not about draft, is about real problems and concrete items that 
you want to work on.
You should work on defining a charter, not in voicing for drafts that 
should be included in a WG that doesn't exist yet.

In addition, all this long list seems to cover a too wide variety of topics.
I would reccomend to be less ambitious, define a much scoped work, by 
defining a charter (As opposed to write drafts)

my two cents

regards, marcelo
