John,
thanks for this.
Martin,
can you be persuaded to go along with the -15 version that John is
releasing, even if it does not contain all the editorial
recommendations you have made? John's point about pace and delay are
relevant here (to me anyway) since we are now racing the clock to get
this into IESG queue and also to get final documents reported to RFC
editor for publication before ICANN has to move on with IDN TLD
registrations.
