A re-charter has been sent to the IESG that includes this new work item:

> 4. Provide concrete guidance for implementers of email user agents
> to promote interoperability of end-to-end cryptographic protection
> of email messages.  This may include guidance about the generation,
> interpretation, and handling of protected messages; management of the
> relevant certificates; documentation of how to avoid common failure
> modes; strategies for deployment in a mixed environment; as well as
> test vectors and examples that can be used by implementers and
> interoperability testing.  The resulting robust consensus among email
> user agent implementers is expected to provide more usable and useful
> cryptographic security for email users.

Assuming that the IESG approves the re-charter text, should the LAMPS WG adopt draft-dkg-lamps-e2e-mail-guidance as the starting point for this work?

Please voice your support or raise concerns by 14 April 2021.
