I can update the text as follows:

        As a result,
        the use of '.home.', both as specified in RFC7788, and for other uses 
is deprecated.
        This should not be taken to mean that an explicit allocation by ICANN 
is superseded;
        this deprecation refers to uses of '.home.' as practiced at the time of 
publication
        of this document.

As you can see, though, this is somewhat problematic, which is why we took out 
similar text previously.   I think this new text is less problematic than the 
old text, but personally I still prefer to just let people wonder what 
"deprecated" means.   I would actually rather leave it ambiguous, in the sense 
that this would also discourage ICANN allocating '.home.' as a GTLD.   However, 
I suspect that there are people on the IESG who understand this issue better 
than I do, and so I would appreciate it if you would discuss this during the 
telechat, if you read this in time, and see if you can get a consensus from the 
IESG on what to write here.   I am happy to make this change or not make it, as 
you all decide.
