We've rewritten the WAMP spec (basic profile) into a RFC draft:

https://github.com/tavendo/WAMP/blob/master/rfc/draft-oberstet-hybi-tavendo-wamp-01.txt

This is the first RFC style document we've written (well, Alex did the 
rewriting;). We've tried hard to follow all formal rules and started to 
reword the text so it better fits "RFC style".

The the draft likely has more formal issues, but we now have a concrete 
proposal text to discuss and work from on the content matter.

Currently the draft is on GitHub, but I guess there is a process to get 
each of the draft versions published.

How does the process of publishing RFC draft work?

Anything else to do?
