draft-mrw-trill-over-ip is not out of scope, it's just not on the current list of deliverables for the working group.  The core charter of the working group is still OK but the list of deliverables is more than a year old.  Some have been completed, some have seen some progress but are late, some have not been addressed at all.  It's appropriate for the WG to revisit the list of deliverables, decide what documents are core and revise the charter appropriately.
