Paul,


 They still should (strongly) consider checking the validity of the XML
 by comparing it to what the IESG approved.

Yes, and they do compare to what IESG approved. Substantial changes are
brought to the AD's approval. This is what caused us to find the problem
in this case.

I'm confused. Why should the RFC Editor accept XML with any 
substantial changes? That's inherently prone to error. They should 
start with what was approved.

I agree with Paul here. The TXT is what the IESG approved.
The XML is just a convenience.
