Thanks for that clarification. The IETF is a deliberative body, and I was
under the impression that discussion at any point in the process, though
not optimal, was acceptable. I did not realize SIDR had deviated.

I'm pretty sure I understand the difference between WGLC and wg document
acceptance. What I am uncertain about is the criteria for working group
document acceptance in SIDR.

>And I said it generated "a first storm of discussion", not "interest".

So, is "a fire storm of discussion" the threshold for document acceptance?
If a document fails to generate such a storm, will it not be accepted?
Since ROVER did generate a storm, will you be accepting it as a working
group document? Again, I'm trying to determine the criteria upon which the
chairs accept a document as a working group item. I do find "a fire storm
of discussion" to be a unique threshold.

I'll note that you did say, "Nothing like actively working on a topic to
demonstrate interest in working on the topic." Hence my confusion.
