A rough schedule would then be: during the Nov 2-3 f2f meeting agree

January 5 CR#2 ends as does the Exclusion period; mid January
publish PR.
This is the part that I'm not sure I understand. Do we really need to
wait until the F2F to agree to the changes that need to be made? My
understanding is that Marcos has almost integrated all of them, and
also that we believe we now have a level of review way above anything
we had before. Why not just go into LC#3 next week, and hit CR#2 at
the F2F?
I can see my email can be interpreted as "we must wait until the f2f
before agreeing to changes" but what I meant is more like "let's make
that the deadline for any LC#3 changes". Naturally, we should try to
get consensus on all CR issues as soon as we can.
Give the July CR says it will not end until November 1, it would seem
a bit strange if we published a new LC before then. Given this and
the publication moratorium around the TPAC time frame, I think Nov 10
is the first publishing opportunity. Perhaps one of the Team members
can provide some guidance on the rules and/or precedence for that.
