Thanks Stephen and Peter, for the clarifications. For what it's worth, I'd
meant to send my note to a different alias, but now I'm glad to have heard from
both of you on the remaining steps ahead as a result!
Best wishes,
-- Mike

Well, "last step" might be a bit optimistic. :)
For those who aren't familiar with the process, the next steps are:
1. IETF Last Call, which lasts two weeks. This is essentially your last
opportunity to provide feedback!
2. During IETF Last Call, the documents will be reviewed by several cross-area
teams within the IETF, including folks like the "GEN-ART"
review team and the AppsDir. We'll expect at least some feedback from those
teams. And at this stage anyone in the Internet community can provide feedback,
too.
3. After IETF Last Call, this WG's document editors will work to address any
feedback we've received.
4. The documents will then be scheduled for disussion during an IESG telechat.
Before the telechat, all the members of the Internet Engineering Steering Group
will review the specs and also provide feedback. If there are "DISCUSSES" and
"COMMENTS" lodged then the document editors will need to address those (often
in concert with the WG chairs). If some of those issues are substantive, the
editors and chairs might bring those issues back to the WG for more discussion.
5. Assuming the documents are approved by the IESG, they will then be handed
off to the RFC Editor team for final copy editing, proofreading, reference
checking, etc.
As you can see, because there are still many steps left in the process, it
might be a few months before these specs are published as RFCs.
Just so you know!
