Thanks, Warren.  As people have have seen if they stalk Data Tracker, mcr has 
graciously agreed to shepherd this document.  Thanks!

Joe

With this work being adopted, the chairs would like to request someone to step 
forward to serve as shepherd when the document moves to LC.  There has been a 
recent discussion between all WG chairs that ideal shepherds are those that are 
not authors and have a vested interest in the work and can both defend it and 
help to keep it moving through the process.

Just as a quick followup to this:
Yes, it would be great if we can have volunteers from the WG serve as 
shepherds. It provides a whole bunch of benefits, including:
1: An additional set of (focused) eyes on the document.

2: It provides people with significant "behind the curtains" exposure - you get 
to see how the sausage is actually made

3: It provides a further backstop to confirm that the process was correctly 
followed (there does indeed seem to be consensus, the check and balances were 
all checked and balanced, etc).

4: It provides you with a taste of chairing, but with less work.

If you are even considering ever chairing a WG, you can get a good head start 
by shepherding a few documents — ADs are likely to be more supportive if you've 
already demonstrated skill and judgment by doing so.

Additionally, chairs are not ideal shepherds.

If you would like to raise your hand for this work, let us know.  Authors, if 
you know of someone that would be good give us the name or have them reach out.

Thanks.

Joe
