Also, for purposes of review, it would be helpful to have some more detail on "This group will publish Specifications." (The scope of such possible specifications is one of the key factors many of us need to review in order to get approvals to join Groups.). Also, just to set expectations, I would note that "Specification" isn't a classification per se - it's ideal to use CGs to incubate standards, but when you get to the point of "managing, upgrading and implementing" you'll likely need to charter a Working Group. (All that said, I want to say from a personal perspective I'm happy to see more work in this space being incubated!)
