No. This document is a hodge podge. It mixes the authors's solution 
ideas with  requirements statements. It is very uneven in its 
treatment of topics, and has numerous errors, e.g., characterizing 
anti-replay as a crypto mechanism. It is not a generic requirements 
document, as the title suggests.

No. I believe the current WG is not appropriately constituted to take 
on this task.

>3) Should draft-convery-bgpattack-01.txt be accepted as a WG work item?

I think an attack tree is useful as part of a broader analysis of 
security concerns. But since I do not believe that this WG, as 
currently constituted, should pursue protocol-specific tasks, I would 
not recommend accepting this document.

>4) Should draft-jones-OSPF-vuln-01.txt be accepted as a WG work item?

no, see my response to #2 above.
