</span>I tend to think that any overlap/duplication would get solved naturally,<br>
without having to force everyone through an application process that may<br>
discourage natural emergence of such groups. I feel like an application<br>
process would be premature optimization. We can always encourage groups<br>
to merge (or clean them up) after the fact. How much<br>
overlaps/duplicative groups did you end up having ?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Fair point, it wasn't many. The reason I recalled this effort was because we had to go through the exercise after the fact and that made the volume of WGs to review much larger than had we asked the purpose whenever they were created. As long as we check back periodically and not let the work for validation/clean up pile up then this is probably a non-issue. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

</span>I feel like most groups should be inclusive of all community, so I'd<br>
rather see the SIGs being the default, and ops-specific or dev-specific<br>
groups the exception. To come back to my Public Cloud WG example, you<br>
need to have devs and ops in the same group in the first place before<br>
you would spin-up a "address scalability" SIG. Why not just have a<br>
Public Cloud SIG in the first place?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>+1, I interpreted originally that each use-case would be a SIG versus the SIG being able to be segment oriented (in which multiple use-cases could be pursued) </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<br>
</span>There are various options. Currently you give UC WG leads the AUC<br>
status. We could give any SIG lead both statuses. Or only give the AUC<br>
status to a subset of SIGs that the UC deems appropriate. It's really an<br>
implementation detail imho. (Also I would expect any SIG lead to already<br>
be both AUC and ATC somehow anyway, so that may be a non-issue).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We can discuss this later because it really is an implementation detail.
