We don't let WGs decide the fate of WG docs; the IESG and RFC editors do that. The WGs make their - sometimes myopic - decisions, and the IESG decides how to proceed for the community.Let's also let the VRRP WG decide on the fate of SIP WG documents, the CALSCH WG decide on the fate of OSPF WG docs... Let's particularly ignore the fact that the folks closest to the issues have the most interest in getting the best possible outcome.
By closer analogy, we certainly don't let BOFs decide whether to be WGs themselves.
