FWIW, this is now available at http://git.upsilon.cc/?p=text/gr-ctte-term-limit.git;a=tree I've adapted the text of the "2-R" model to match other wording changes that seemed orthogonal to me to the model, and that have in the meantime been applied to the "2" model. I attach to this mail the 2 GR text proposals, as well as the diff between them, which is (as expected) restricted to how the amount of expiries are calculated. I do not plan to propose or second this as an amendment myself, but having it ready might help others doing so. So if you care about it, please have a look.
