Hi Ben, I've a question.

Where such mechanisms appear sufficiently > useful, the WG will re-charter to add relevant new work items." I'd like to get a feel for how these work items might be sequenced. For the 2nd one, I assume the modus-operandi would be for folks interested in transparency-for-X to write up a personal draft, have that discussed on the WG list and for stuff for which the WG achieve consensus to re-charter to add new work items to tackle transparency-for-X to the charter. That seems fine to me. (And people can starting writing those today - the more that exists before the WG would be chartered, the easier it'll all be.) For the first one, I'm not clear as to whether you intend to 1) first consider a set of transparency-for-X proposals, re-charter and to only then figure out how to re-factor 6962 into a set of standards-track RFCs, or 2) if you want to do the work of generating a standards-track set of RFCs based on 6962 for HTTP/TLS before the WG have considered a set of transparency-for-X proposals. Or maybe 3) you wanted that to emerge from this chartering discussion. Can you clarify? If (1) or (2) apply then it'd probably be useful to include that explicitly in the charter text. If (3) applies then I guess you'd want to actively lead the discussion down that path, which sort of seems to be happening already. And note I'm not asking here about the specific set of RFCs as deliverables nor the timing of those deliverables, just how the ordering of HTTP/TLS vs. other stuff would happen at a coarse-grained level. (Separately, it'd be good to chat about what RFC deliverables are likely to be wanted, but probably only after the above is clear.) Thanks, S.
