​So, this is a common misconception.  Adopting a draft doesn't mean you
think it is done or even that it has no known issues; it's a statement by
the working group that this is a starting point.  ​Think of it like picking
a github repo to work from--you want concrete text to present diffs to, and
picking a draft to work from lets you do that.   I believe the group so far
believes that the diffs should be against draft-barnes; that's all this
means.
