Hi, we've done a lot of work on this document as a group, and it may well be ready to go through WG Last Call. However it did go through 4 revisions since San Francisco. So before we proceed, I'd like to ask if anybody is seeing showstopper issues with the draft in its current form. In which case we'll need to work on this draft some more before sending it to LC. If there are small issues though, we can defer them to the last call process.
Please respond to the list, or to Paul and myself.
Thanks,
Yaron
