Memos and Internet-Drafts

I'm sorry to have to ding Julian on this publicly, but this sort
of use of "memo"s has got to stop.  The only working documents
of this WG are Internet-Drafts.  The memos that Julian refers to
that are not Internet-Drafts will vanish off that web site in the near
future - if it's important enough to save for future reference, it's
important enough to write up and submit as an Internet-Draft.
An example of the problems that not writing Internet-Drafts
causes is that since nobody's written that memo up as one,
it cannot be put on the agenda or discussed in San Diego, period.

Sorry to (virtually) pound the table, but this is important ...

Thanks,
