We do accept -- in fact we highly encourage -- other people from outside 
the core BOF constituency to provide feedback on what a new WG should 
and should not work on. In that sense Sri's input is very welcome, 
particularly given his close involvement in Proxy Mobile IPv6 
technology. So it is fine to suggest more work items, or comment on the 
existing ones. However, Rajeev is right in the sense that we have a 
process through which all of this is being developed. Proposal for new 
work comes from some set of people, and is refined through discussion on 
the list and in the meeting, AD/IESG review, etc. In particular, the 
proposals on the table in the BOF are in a far easier place to enter the 
final charter, because we had an opportunity for the community to review 
and comment on those proposals. We can add items, and small things can 
be added very easily. For larger things we might need more discussion...
