Hi all,

   I fully agree with the procedure suggested by Adrian.

   @Fatai. I guess all drafts (stable or not), except those that have an
early allocation, will need to have a TBD value. A suggested value is
usually (mis)interpreted as ³this is the specified value, though not
official yet²

   Best Regards,

        Óscar
