Personally I would like to see that whatever document enters into
the RFC-Production function (to use the terminology from the RFC
Editor model[*]) has a clean copy in the repository. That allows for
a very clean interface between the streams and the RFC-producer. So,
I would argue that the result of (iv) is always posted.

Based on my (quite short) experience as AD so far, it seems document
authors vary greatly in how fast they can update the document and
submit it (once the text has been agreed).

I've seen this done in less than 10 minutes (sometimes before the
IESG telechat ended). I've seen cases where it has taken several 
months. In cases where the time is measured in weeks (relatively
common) or months (fortunately rare), just sending the RFC Editor 
note (and not waiting for updated clean copy) saves time, especially 
considering that the RFC Editor processes documents quite fast
nowadays.

I'm tempted to say that if it takes the authors months to update the 
document with the suggested change, then, well, a publication delay of 
several months is what they deserve :-).
