2013.  It was parked  by the WG chairs because there was no consensus to
move the document forward during WGLC [2][3]. However, circumstances have
changed namely the publication of Dragonfly Key Exchange RFC [4] and the
proposed changes to the IANA registration rules for algorithm code points.
In light of these two developments, the chairs want to revisit this
decision and would like to know before 12 July if the WG wants to progress
draft-ietf-pwd as a WG item to obtain algorithm code points under the new
rules [5].

Things have also changed in that JPAKE2 has a security proof IIUC. While
the CFRG PAKE process has slowed, there are still a number of competing
options here and I don't think "all of the above" is the right answer.
