My goal is to publish it as an Informational RFC. It is an

followed, I have found the document very useful. It has been referred
to numerous times in IETF and IESG discussions. Consensus is hard and
many WG discussions have complex trade-offs and differing opinions. I
believe having this document become an RFC would help us apply the
useful principles even more widely than we are doing today.

Glad to hear it - I think this is an enormously useful document.
I'm wondering if wg chair training at an upcoming meeting can't
be spent on it.  Vancouver's too soon, but what about London?
