Not directly related to this draft, but after we've now identified state 
of affairs, what's next? When I brought this up originally I asked for 
some kind of "IEEE/Wifi and IETF decide on the work split to fix what part 
of the problem space". Frankly, I can't see that anything happened to 
this?

Does this mean we've decided it's not really a problem we need to solve, 
or what's the outcome? I'm thinking long term strategically... What's the 
future for L2 broadcast/multicast use in IETF?
