Hi Mike,

Much thanks for your review!

Adrian, I'm also a bit confused on the intention of the draft. While the tools 
are not error checking a draft with intended status of PS against a title 
indicating an individual submission, the title does indicate the source of the 
document. With the current title, this document is an individual submission to 
the IETF stream. If this is a product of the working group, the title needs to 
reflect it. As it is requested to be "PS", it does need to reflect the 
associated working group.

While it is a bit surprising this was not raised in WG Last Call (hopefully 
folks have read the document), it will definitely be flagged with the other 
Area Directorate reviews and IESG review. While the working group cycle was 
very short, the resulting publication cycle will be very long.

As the WG LC was based on PS status, I would conclude the group is ok with PS. 
Either you can change the title to reflect a product of the pce working group 
or change the status to Informational and I'll take it forward as an individual 
submission. If you change the title to a product of the pce working group, I'll 
follow up with a note to the list to double check if anyone has any concerns. 
And then we can move ahead.

Looking forward to your choice😊
Deborah

Hi Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Not rejecting the idea of a drink, but just sharing with the wider community...

It is fun to exercise the full range of IETF process options from time to time.
The chairs did not think it was necessary to delay the draft by putting it into 
the adoption queue and going through all that piece of process when all that 
was needed was a last call.

Oh look! Officially there is no 's' on Communication. (Also right in the 
Introduction) Thanks.

So, you think 'so' is so so-so?

Yup. Caught a couple of equally ambiguous cases.

Best,
Adrian
