Dear RSWG and RSAB

Some of you may have spotted that there was a recent change to RFCXML grammar 
in xml2rfc v3.30.0 to allow blockquote inside dd.

While this was a minor change, I want to apologise because this change did not 
comply with the current policy that such changes can only be made by an 
editorial stream RFC, nor would it have complied with the future policy 
(assuming 9280bis is approved), which delegates authority to the RPC to make 
such changes, as there was no consultation and discussion about it.  Ultimately 
this was down to a misunderstanding and will not be repeated.

The RPC are starting work on their process for discussing and consulting about 
changes and I am confident that they will ensure that any future changes are 
managed in the transparent way required by 9280bis.

Jay
