Sorry, I got confused because I read the Impacts section Robert
quoted before reading the entire Pace in detail. This is what the
Impacts section of the Pace refers to:
<author><name>James Aylett, James Aylett, and James Aylett</name></author>
+1 to forbidding this.
This is what the last change directed in the Pace forbids and
which the last sentence in the Rationale refers to:
<author><name>James Aylett</name></author>
<author><name>James Aylett</name></author>
<author><name>James Aylett</name></author>
-1 to forbidding this.
In other words, I am still +1 to most of the Pace, save for the
one addition to 4.1.2 which imposes this restriction.
Which is actually precisely what Robert objected to – once you
see past the irrelevant squabble over his mention of the byline.
