A question...:
A specification shall remain at the Proposed Standard maturity level
for at least six (6) months before consideration for advancement to
the Internet Standard maturity level.
It would probably good to clarify when the six month period starts (IESG
approval? RFC publication?).
RFC publication seems sensible -- sometimes it can take more than six
months between IESG approval and RFC publication! (Slow authors during
AUTH48, dependencies on yet-to-be-published specs, etc.)
