I think the Specs Council has to vote to recommend the creation of the
WG, then it has to be put to vote.<br>
<br>
It also looks like each person joining the WG will need to have his (of
her) employer sign an IPR Agreement explicitly saying that the employee
is allowed to work on that WG.<br>

<div>I see that, in order to create a working group [1], there must
be a membership vote of 7 days where at least 20% of the membership
votes in favor of the creation of the group.</div>

<div>It's unclear how we initiate this vote, or if it's already been
requested. Perhaps you could clear this up on the wiki page and also
let us know where we are in the process of creating the WG?</div>
