So emailed.

I agree with Pete: we should make every effort to keep the WG open to
work on them.  If we can't do that, then we clearly don't have enough
interest to do them outside the WG.  In that case, they could go to
the ISE, and come out as informational, describing a planned
standardization that didn't happen.

I hope it doesn't come to that, and that we can have enough enthusiasm
left to finish them here.
