In summary, over two years of IETF WG meetings of WREC have
resulted in exactly zero WG documents?

If that's the case, i.e., if WREC has no official output,
why is it so clear that there should be a follow-on WG?
So far, I see lots of energy in a lot of directions, which
reminds me of herding cats. What is the focal point of the
new WG, and the proposed contribution?

(and, in light of WREC's results, is it realistic??)

Joe

PS - kudos to the WREC WG chairs for getting us this far,
but it seems that we should be careful about opening another
can of worms if this one has petered out...
