Hello folks,

I am going through my working groups and checking if their charters are 
up to date. The current charter of PPPEXT emphasizes the work on 
advancing documents to Full Standard, whereas in reality we right now do 
very little of that. After discussion with James, we would like to make 
a small update to the charter as follows. Thoughts - comments - 
objections, anyone?

Description of Working Group:

The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP, RFC 1661) is a mature protocol with a
large number of subprotocols, encapsulations and other extensions. The
PPPEXT working exists to provide a forum for asking clarifications
about the existing specifications and to defend against enhancements
of questionable value. The group is not expected to create new
specifications, and if a need for such work comes up, a recharter is
required. The group may, however, advance existing specifications
to the next level in the standards track, if a need for that comes up.

Goals and Milestones:
