a very good question.

there was a discussion log about closing the dnsext wg in 2007.
pls see http://www.ietf.org/jabber/logs/dnsext/2007-03-21.html
but it survives

members.
I think that IETF is a down to up organization, not a up to down 
organization.
so any request to close down the wg should come from the wg.
but it seems that we heard nothing about it until this message.
