I hate to inform you that you have been mislead. The IETF and the IANA do not operate as you outlined above. Having spent too many years within ICANN/IETF/IANA I can assure you are mistaken. Your drafts are expired and it appears that there is no support for a "finance" working group in the IETF. -rick
