It'll be easier to iterate on the WEBTRANS WG Charter proposal as well as the BOF Agenda if we store these in github.
Current BOF Agenda is as follows:

Description of Working Group:
The WebTransport working group will define new protocols or
protocol extensions in order to support the development of the
W3C WebTransport API https://wicg.github.io/web-transport;.
These protocols will support:
- Reliable bidirectional and unidirectional communication
that provides greater efficiency than Websockets
(e.g. removal of head-of-line blocking).
- Unreliable datagram communication, functionality not
available in Websockets.
- Origin checks to allow supporting the Web's origin-based
security model.
The WebTransport working group will define three variants:
- A protocol directly running over QUIC with its own ALPN.
- A protocol that runs multiplexed with HTTP/3.
- Fallback protocols that can be used when QUIC or UDP
are not available.
The group will pay attention to security issues arising from
the above scenarios so as to ensure against creation of new
modes of attack, as well as to ensure that security issues
addressed in the design of Websockets remain addressed
in the new work.
To assist in the coordination with W3C, the group will
initially develop an overview document containing use cases
and requirements in order to clarify the goals of the effort.
Feedback will also be solicited at various points along the way
in order to ensure the best possible match between the protocol
extensions and the needs of the W3C WebTransport API. The clarity
and interoperability of specifications will be confirmed via test
events and hackathons.
The group will also coordinate with other working groups within
the IETF (e.g. QUIC, HTTPBIS) as appropriate.
