I think this WG is a little better at discussing detailed text
than abstract concepts.  I suppose we will know which
fields people agree on when we get down in the details
and hammer out every option of every feature from top
to bottom and back again.

So go ahead and write up details for SD-Params if you want.
At this point there isn't WG consensus for any particular
field of any message over any transport. 

However several people have expressed concern over reinventing
syslog or SNMP Notifications, and this will be a factor in the process.
