sorry, my mistake.  I was going through Rick's calls and assumed there 
was a call for adoption on this one too.

Note that some of what you are rightfully asking already exists partially in the 6TiSCH and DetNet architectures, and there will be some fusion work to do. As co author of both I believe it is quite doable. A matter of time...

Fair enough - thanks for the response and my apologies for the adoption 
comment.

I actually expect new approaches that are specific to RAW in addition to those inherited from DetNet and possibly extended.

I agree that the architecture is the beginning of a solution, which is composed of many components that the architecture outlines. That's the reason why it must come the best informed party, and hopefully RAW is the group that has formed for that at the IETF.
