Just to clarify this point: I would and should only volunteer as an
editor for something like Medium if I can subscribe to whatever will
be in the charter for Medium. While I have some ideas of what Medium
should be, WG 2 may see it very differently. But this is probably
self-evident.
In any case, it has always been meant to be a work of a group of
people; small enough to be flexible and fast but large enough to have
enough shoulders on which to build the project.
