In reading that old thread, I also noticed that a bunch of inconsistencies,
errors, and philosophical disagreements were raised.

These were fixed by a good summary from the editor and the author, followed
by:

1) "Ok, so we're not allowing [any extensions/errors], right?"
2) "Yes"
3) "Awesome"

That sequence of emails is in there. This shows that a small group can also
converge on a strict implementation (it was much stricter than RFC4627).

The absence of procedural debate or unjustified backward compatibility
concerns is interesting. Maybe the IAB/IETF should work on getting closer
to that process.

thanks,
Rob
