Re: [Masque] Éric Vyncke's No Objection on charter-ietf-masque-02-01: (with COMMENT)

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the comments.

1) My intent has always been to constrain the scope of the MASQUE work as
much as possible, rather than be more generic.

2) Yes, you're right. intarea is already on the coordination list for IP
proxying but I'll add it for connect-ethernet.

The WG did a consensus call and it's reflected in the datatracker as
adopted. However, every time this has come up I have made it abundantly
clear to the authors that this is provisional on a recharter, and that
the work is lower-priority than the other chartered work. The authors
understand that if there are fundamental objections from the community, the
work will be abandoned.
