[rfc-i] gen area wg on IETF process changes for new format?

[brian.e.carpenter at gmail.com (Brian E Carpenter)]

Larry,

I prefer the word "procedure" to "process" because I don't think
that there are any changes to the formal process rules needed.
Apart from that, I think having a well-defined forum for the
discussion - including tool chain aspects as far as they affect
WG and IESG procedures - is a good idea (nearer the time: starting
it now would be confusing, I think).

Regards
   Brian

Optional changes might include "Authors are encouraged to mark up normative statements and use &MUST; &MAY; &SHOULD; for features".
