The world can use Atom, sooner rather than later. The return-on-investment of further WG time invested in polishing something that's already pretty good is starting to be very unattractive. Particularly when the Protocol draft seriously needs work and progress.
I agree that the world should use Atom sooner than later, but think we should bake a few more things into the format specification before we say it's finished. Plus, the specification is in urgent lack of examples, a couple of missing chapters, etc.
What if we try to set a tentative �goal date� for the format? Then we freeze it, work out all the details in the text so the freezed text gets polished and perfect, and then we move on to the protocol one hundred percent?
