Re: [earlywarning] Finishing the Charter Text Discussions

Ok, I can grant that that's something that's not clearly explained in  
the current charter.  However, it's also an issue that will tend to be  
layer-2 specific.  How about something like this:

"
Emergency alerts that are delivered to large numbers of endpoints can  
put a large load on the network, particularly when many affected users  
are on the same local network (e.g., the 100,000 attendees at a  
sporting event).  This working group will consider mechanisms for  
minimizing this load, such as IP multicast.  In particular, some  
approaches have been developed to handle emergency alerting in  
different types networks, and it will be a goal of this working group  
to facilitate interoperability with these approaches, for example, to  
enable gateways to relay messages from this Internet mechanism into a  
specific layer-2 channel.
