It's pretty simple. The 2nd draft doesn't obsolete or replace the first
one,
it's a Lex Facebook, just like reserving ".local" was a Lex Apple.  I'm not
generally against those at all, but I personally dislike that IETF
passes things
quickly if they are backed by multi-billion dollar companies, while putting
up high hurdles (and delays are obstacles) for proposals that are just
as sound but do not come with such support.  Corporatocracy at its best.

Now, if Alec thinks there is anything in his draft that is not covered in
our original draft, I'm sure we can merge them as there is nothing in
the Lex Facebook on the technical side that we would disagree with.

So one could view this as the political-compromise draft: the
multistakeholder
process is designed to deadlock on almost everything, except for what
the corporations need (as they represent a sufficient number of the
"stakeholders").

Anyway, that's my perspective, Jake is more optimistic ;-).
