No we haven't. We wanted to first get some SIGs up and see if they have
common tracking needs. The PWG could definitely help in that area.

That sounds like a good idea. That said, one of the goals behind SIGs is
that they are open to developer types as much as operator types, and
therefore can be used as a vehicle to combine developer resources from
like-minded organizations around a given topic. The SIG can come up with
a common priority list and have all those "internal" development
resources working together in implementing those priorities. If that's
successful, there might not be as much need for external coordination
and priority exposure.

No, see (1).
