Making to these deadlines seems like a bad idea if the consequence will
be that we split off content that will then be completely and unnecessarily
redesigned thus rendering piles of existing code obsolete.  The draft has
languished for two plus years I think.  Another four months won't make a
difference.  We should keep the document together in one piece and address
the existing problems, not speculative problems.

Rather than continuing with this meta discussion, why don't we move on to
the meat of getting the issues addressed.
