More to the point, I think, would have been a recommendation that work
on RDA cease until a coding system was designed, and ILS development
took place, which could accommodate the implementation of FRBR and
FRAD.

I think RDA implementation should be delayed at least until those two
things have occurred.  We are pouring new wine into old wine bottles.
