Good question! I did go back and diff the last couple of versions and though this isn't the exhaustive diff, these are the key changes that caught my eye:

This text was lost from the previous draft charter:

This analysis will explain what
role LISP can play in scalable routing. The analysis should also look at
scalability and levels of state required for encapsulation,
decapsulation, liveness, and so on as well as the manageability and
operability of LISP. Specifically, the group will work on:

- documenting areas that need experimentation
- summarizing the results of implementation, experiments, and deployment
  experience
- describing the implications of employing LISP
- operational guidance for using LISP

And so were these Goals and Milestones:

Jun 2012    Forward to the IESG an operational document which should
           include cache management and ETR synchronization
           techniques (draft-ietf-lisp-deployment).

Dec 2013    Publish an example cache management specification.

Jun 2014    Summarize results of specifying, implementing, and testing
           LISP and forward to IESG and/or IRTF.

Jun 2014    Analyze and document the implications of LISP deployments in
           Internet topologies and forward to IESG for publication.

I'm not sure why these were removed, and I would like to see them reinstated or at least have a discussion about their removal.

Thanks,

--John
