Joe,
I fully agree. It *is* OK for a PS to focus on current implementation. In fact,
RFC 2784 does exactly that! The current draft, because it is intended to UPDATE
RFC 2784, explicitly inherits that tone.
So, let's avoid the conversation about how things should be. That conversation
is not likely to converge soon.
