One area "on the table" during the time of a BOF is whether the area is 
appropriate. It shouldn't be considered a "done deal" until it's a WG.

Further, there's clearly a lot of continuing confusion about what this 
work constitutes.

I'm a bit surprised that nobody else spoke up a year ago in Paris; the 
logic in slide 26 is deeply flawed. By that logic, all tunnels are E2E 
and thus all tunnels belong in transport. Regardless, the list is where 
these discussions should happen, and I didn't see any such discussion 
raised here.

Finally, you really ought to look at SEAL.
