Neither "it can be done" nor "I want it to be done" are really actual
arguments for doing anything. However, there are usually real arguments
behind the latter, and those would be useful to hear.

Further, we need people to look at it to figure out what should be
done to address the problem identified (there might be several 
potential ways to address an issue), and then we need people to do
the actual work of writing documents.

I personally think it will be useful to have "ROHC over tunnels" 
clarified/defined, but as a WG chair I need some concrete needs,
as well as working resources (people interested in contributing).

Drafts are welcome!
