indeed the GeoJSON community would probably already had undertaken these 
steps, if it had been a MUST. I am happy, that you personally see no 
problem with submitting to IETF, as I think it would be a good place for 
this pragmatic spec.

I already offered my support in shepherding and hereby add to it, that 
I'd really like to make it happen as long it is clear, that I a) do not 
expect my name to be added as (if I had been) one of the editors and 
claimed any credit I do not want to claim, and b) it is ok for the 
authors, that I actually do start the submittal process.

So what do the others in the community think and how shall I proceed?

Stefan.
