While your comments may be accurate, the RG has been following the usual
process for discussing the document. The RG LC was long ago. That was the
last appropriate milestone for such changes. We then held a consensus check as
to whether the group supported the publication of the document as of the end of
the RG LC. That passed.
We are now in the middle of the IRSG review, where we address comments from the
IRSG. Obviously, if there are other editorial comments (typos, grammar) that
have slipped through, we would still address them, but, per our usual process,
the time for significant changes is passed.
Regards,
Tony
