I noted that the LDUP WG is not yet chartered to do engineering work
in the area of LDAP Access Controls and, hence, the WG's design team
must limit its work (until such time a charter revision is approved)
to making a recommendation on how to revise the charter.

While I believe there is consensus that the LDUP WG charter
needs to revised, I do not believe there is any consensus
as to how the charter should be revised.  In particular, I
do not believe there is yet consensus on which items should
or should not be added/modified/removed.  No specific charter
revision was proposed or discussed at the meeting.
