>> Authentication 2.0 Specification Editors.  The members of the Specifications

>> statement of the rationale for its recommendation (including any findings or

>>
>> (c)     a determination that the proposed WG does not have sufficient

>> completion dates; or
>>
>> (d)    a  determination that the proposal is likely to cause legal liability
>> for the OIDF or others.
>>
>> If no recommendation was issued within 15 days after receipt, the Proposal

>> When the Specifications Council rejects the proposal, the Proposers may
