FWIW, this is now available at
http://git.upsilon.cc/?p=text/gr-ctte-term-limit.git;a=tree
I've adapted the text of the "2-R" model to match other wording changes
that seemed orthogonal to me to the model, and that have in the meantime
been applied to the "2" model.
I attach to this mail the 2 GR text proposals, as well as the diff
between them, which is (as expected) restricted to how the amount of
expiries are calculated.
I do not plan to propose or second this as an amendment myself, but
having it ready might help others doing so. So if you care about it,
please have a look.
Cheers.
