We're getting deep into minutiae at this point, but this is actually 
something I had planned to try and bring to the DB-WG and we'd see where 
we went from there. That said, I simply haven't had the time over the 
summer.

Suresh, your point is noted, however I was asking more for people to 
undertake to help, rather than to lead.

Ok, I realise I have said this before, but given the proximity of RIPE71 
I will undertake, during that week, to iron out some of the important 
minutiae and figure out if DB remains the best place for this and go 
from there.

I would still love if there were more people from this working group who 
were willing and able to help with the drafting, of course, because that 
would help the whole thing along (and not let me get utterly distracted 
by my day job).

Of course if it is decided that AA-WG is the right place for such a 
proposal, I would have to re-evaluate my involvement, but we've 
mechanisms in place to deal with that.

Thanks,

Brian
