Avri,

Could you add an item to the milestones?  That item would be disband WG or
something like that.

> Description of Working Group:
> 
> Discussions over the last couple of months have revealed a
> significant number of thoughts about problems that exist with
> the way the IETF operates.  In advance of trying to change the
> IETF procedures and rules to deal with these problems, the IETF
> should have a clear, agreed upon description of what problems
> we are trying to solve.
> 
> This group is charged with producing the document describing
> those problems.
> 
> The intent is that the group will discuss issues on its mailing
> list, and that there will be an editing team to produce a clear,
> concise problem statement that the group can have consensus on,
> and present to the IETF as a basis for an IETF consensus.
> 
> As a second work item, the group will also produce a proposal
> for a process to develop solutions to the problems identified
> by this working group.
> 
> It is not a part of this group's charter to propose solutions
> to the problems.
> 
> The work items will be reviewed in plenary at the IETF.
