As a followup to the note below, I'd like to raise a separate point of 
discussion.

I'd really like to see some time spent at each WG meeting, and 
periodically on the list (TSVWG and TCPM at least, but all WGs would 
benefit from this, IMO), addressing:

- what CAN be done (vs what can't)
- what SHOULD be done
- HOW to do it, once decided
- prioritization of WHEN to do it, given the above

Right now, we tend to ask the first question only.

What does that mean to this most recent discussion?

- issues that are not related should be separated out
	an RFC is not an opportunity for a shopping list

- separate issues should be considered independently

- just because we agree on an issue does NOT mean an RFC is warranted
