Actually I am using the draft state as long as I think I'd maybe want to change or refine the definition, and I set it to "proposed" when I think I won't have to change the definition. IMHO this is important for others to know when they think about using the same tag, to communicate how settled the definition is, and how likely it will still be changed. cheers, Martin
