OPES Re-Charter

Folks,

time to start discussion and work on a new charter for the WG. In case 
there's enough interest and willingness to continue the work, let's 
try to draft a new charter in time for the upcoming IETF meeting in 
San Diego.

BUT: WE'LL ONLY DRAFT A NEW CHARTER IF THERE ARE ENOUGH ACTIVE 
PARTICIPANTS COMMITTED TO WORKING ON THE NEW ITEMS!

 From previous discussions, the following candidate topics for 
re-chartering have been discussed:

(1) Rules Language
(2) OCP profile for SMTP
(3) Support for streaming media
(4) Others?

Please indicate which topics are of interest to you, and whether you 
can commit to work on the respective item(s). We can move forward only 
if folks are able to spend the time required for making progress.

In the interest of having a very focused and narrow charter (and from 
previous discussions), I would suggest to focus on the first two 
topics. If this is agreeable, we'd continue to work on a charter for 
these two items.


Unfortunately, Marshall will no longer be available as Co-Chair, due 
to time commitments to other things. A big "Thank you" is in order for 
Marshall's help and support in focusing the WG and moving it forward - 
  Thanks, Marshall.

We're trying to find a new Co-Chair, but will already start working on 
a new charter.

Thanks,
   Markus
