Can you expand on what kind of management capabilities you’re thinking of?

Off the top of my head, some ideas include:  transfer of ownership, transfer of service provider, software/security updates, changes to metadata, e.g. to switch protocols or communication patterns, or for the discovery mechanisms used by devices, for access to logs, and the ability to clear logs.

Do we want to make management capabilities an explicit area of study in the new Interest Group charter?
