The WGs that have got the green light of late all represent incremental improvement on existing protocols with the WGs chartered to do as little original work as possible. That is OK if you think the Internet is basically OK and just needs the most minor tweaks here and there. Which might be true in the lower levels but it certainly isn't the case in security or applications. Right now we are in something of a transition point between XML based web services and JSON. It would be a really good thing if IETF could come up with a single house style for JSON based Web services so that there was some sort of consistency in approach like there is with SMTP/NNTP/HTTP. Instead it looks like we will just muddle through. I am also rather skeptical of this idea that IETF is well adapted to cross WG and cross area collaboration. Right now I am trying to persuade people that OpenPGP fingerprints are a good idea. In fact they are a good idea as a basic security primitive that we apply in DNSSEC, S/MIME, SSH and pretty much anywhere we might want to describe a root of trust in a compact machine and human readable form. To date, nobody has told me this is a bad idea or that it isn't worth considering or harmful. Instead the pushback is 'convince me that this is necessary'. How are we going to get convergence between work in different groups if that is the attitude?
