Hi Michael,

On the question about the right place, ideally opsarea would be more 
appropriate as this is an effort that will impact the work done in many WGs and 
even areas, however we can't adopt documents there. With that in mind and given 
that opsawg is the main entry for the area, developing the effort here would 
allow to uplevel a bit the effort. Like the work on 5706bis, I do we expect the 
work is also highlighted/discussed as part of opsarea sessions, though.

No matter where this will be developed, there is a need to socialize and reach 
out various WGs/areas about this work.

Cheers,
Med
