Not only sending proposed WG charters in the direction of myself an
Ned, but more importantly a general plan for content distribution.
I would like to see a one-page paper (not much more is needed, or?)
which talks about what different components exist in a content
network.
A list such as (but it should fit together):
- Distribution of data from origin server to copies within administrative
control of the owner of the data
- Distribution of data from origin server to copies outside of <above>
- Preloading / load on demand of caches
- Cache discovery
- Routing of client to closest site with data
- Switching of client to good server within site
- Billing / charging / statistics collection
- HTTP / HTML extensions for cache control
- Continuation of work on taxonomy

You are the one doing the list, and you then tell what on that list
should be handled by each of the proposed wg's. I am definitly not
saying that you have to create wg's for everything (I rather see not
:-), but what pieces you are going to work on, and what have to wait.
And, I want a list which you all in the "wrec" area agree on. Not one
explanation from each one of you (which I have got so far :-). I.e.
the stories have to fit together.
