What I was suggesting was that WPAD and WCCP would be
produced as IDs, and reviewed in the WREC WG, to
be produced as either informational RFCs 'recommended by the WG',
or standards-track 'as promoted by individual members, but NOT
the WG'.

This just means that, if they are moved into standards track,
it's not done by the WG. That would, IMO, exceed the current
charter of the WG.

PS - Keith, can you be more specific about the boundary issues
that you have heard about? This would help us revise the charter,
which I believe is a current topic of discussion.
