Hi Carsten,

Thanks a lot for the offer of continued feedback and the "cheering up" 
to the authors.

As I see it, the WG was guided to work on high-level (-req and -arch) 
documents, and then was killed because the documents do not provide 
sufficient lower-level details. As a result, I do not see them surviving 
the IETF process. Thanks for the good draft-farrell-decade-ni example. 
But the example is a specific design document, and the killed docs are 
design-guideline documents. Hence, I am quite pessimistic on they they 
may go through the IETF process. A specific protocol/component design 
document might be more possible. Does this make sense?

Thanks!

Richard
