ian - let me respond to your last comment:
I'm also a little confused as to the apparent urgency to take this document
WG (and presumably wider) Last Call when many of the supporting documents
appear expired/non-existent in the I-D directory (perhaps it's just the
titles that have changed? I thought I had an up-to-date mirror of the
directory) making it impossible for the reader to fully understand this
document. (I.E. surely this document is just going to sit in RFC-Editor's
queue anyway.)
the document was published two weeks before the last call and there were ZERO
comments on the list.
maybe everyone's on vacation, or everyone thinks its perfect, or everyone has
stopped caring. maybe all three.
the only way to test that assertion is to do a working group last call and see
what happens... based on your note and graham's note and oskar's note, the last
call message had the desired effect.
now, we need to see what others think and whether the discussion leads to a
concensus on the existing document or what needs to go into the next revision...
