I disagree. WGs have charters, which result in RFCs. During that process, they have consensus-based working drafts that are refined to meet their charter goals. That's an "adopted" draft. But it doesn't have to be based on a single individual draft, a working draft can be the result of merging earlier individual drafts, or can even originate as a WG draft without a preceding individual draft or drafts. But yes, working drafts do reflect WG consensus, and they have formal standing as such.
emphatically disagree, and as said earlier I believe it is a Bad Idea to give such draft more status than they deserve.
