Osama,

sorry our mails crossed each other on the wire. I see your
point, but doi not really understand why you need the actual
code points to reach consensus - as long as you know you will
get them?

But, I will not try to stop publishing the draft - as long as the
note on cr-ldp not scheduled for further development is added.

Hi Adrian,

The ITU is scheduled to consent G.7713.3 by the end of the month. In order for this to happen we need the IANA code points, and this is the only purpose of this draft.

I hope now you see the urgency of this draft.

I'm not quite saying that.
I am saying that it sounds to me from the discussion that the ITU has not yet reached consent. It seemed to me that if the draft is intended to document the ITU preferences as informational, it would be as well to wait until the ITU has
fully signed off. I don't see any rush for this.
