If it is a true requirement, then I guess the IETF is an abysmal
failure. Oh, well.
Well, openness is only one metric.
"needed to display" is often an issue the IETF ignores, so we might
avoid it if the desire is to get to Draft Standard.
But Julian's second message needs to be dealt with first, and I assure
you that many of those documents are not going to be going to Draft
Standard any time soon (if ever) because there is no energy to test
every required feature in the documents.
Well, I figured it might make sense to advance something that pretty
much works. I now see how foolish that idea was. Cycling at proposed
will be fine.
