Indeed, the world has changed since TCP is no more *the* protocol, so this work
is welcome.

I think that this text needs a rewrite:
`However, if the working group has
adopted further work in accordance with the guidelines above, it can recharter,
add milestones for them, and continue until that work is complete.`

Isn't the above putting the cart before the horses ? I.e., why not doing the
usual process of rechartering *before* adopting an IETF draft ? (this of course
does not prevent the WG to work/discuss an individual draft)

Another point is about what will be the deliverables of this WG ? The current
charter appears to be more suited for a directorate (doing reviews of WG
documents) than for a WG (publishing documents).

COMMENT:

One comment about `empirical evidence of safety` as safety is rather vague (or
do you mean information security or network stability ?). "Empirical" is also
rather vague, should it rather be "experimental" ?

I second Erik Kline's comment on ### P7/Bullet 1.

The charter is also rather long, but this is a matter of taste.
