Hi,

I am still working on an update to the document.

It's encouraging to hear that another group is looking at maintaining RPSTIR. 
When I discussed the 6 months with Rob we felt that this should be doable (he 
can correct me if I am wrong). In our case we have had a working implementation 
of the algorithm for quite some time, and those changes by themselves are not 
hard. With the new OIDs we do need to change some things around - making this 
dependent on OIDs rather than a local configuration setting, but it's not a big 
deal.

I think it's reasonable that the ability to update implementations from both RP 
implementations and CA implementations should factor in to a mandatory to 
implement time frame for RPs, and later CAs. But I also believe that we should 
be somewhat ambitious, especially w.r.t. RPs because their implementation is on 
the critical path. CAs can only start to publish when RPs support this.

Regards
Tim
