In writing a charter, discussing and documenting what is beyond
scope of the working group certainly adds value.  I, for one,
cannot figure out what is beyond the scope of this working group.
Your response to one of my previous posts certainly didn't help
clarify matters:
   Since there is nothing explicitly in the charter about
   this, I suppose it would be logical to say that it is
   not explicitly prohibited.
