My objection would be satisfied if we also simultaneously published
Mike Smith's document and/or Manu's fork as First Public Working
Drafts along with a clear public explanation of the process we
are now engaging.
Drafts should be published or not based on their own merits. Holding
one draft hostage based on the success of another, or lack thereof, is
very much an obstructionist tactic, and I don't think the group, or the
chairs, should tolerate such behaviour.
