I think that the WG needs to go through the major diffs and gain consensus.
I don't think we need to follow all the dead ends, etc.  or the
word-smithing.

If there hasn't been any major restructuring of the document, then rfcdiff
ought to do 70% of the work here for us.  Someone just has to chop up what
remains, and generate a slide for each part and attach some motivation.
