No they are saying that PEP and RFC are the same type of thing with the same
type of users. RFC is older then PEP and could have changed but did not.
The RFC process works. I also think that the PEP process works.

Multiple people independently offered up RFC as similar process.

I do not see what problem PAP will solve that will not create more problems 
then it
*may* solve. And I'm not convinced that there is a problem to solve.
