Thanks for the updates, Mike.  Just one note...

Unfortunately, the RFC 7519 guidance is perhaps a bit lacking, in that
while it says the experts should consider several factors (duplication of
existing functionality, general vs. specific applicability, etc.), it
doesn't say very clearly which direction any given factor should move the
experts in.  For example, while I expect near-universal agreement that
duplicating existing functionality should receive pushback, the agreement
may be less clear that proposals that are only useful by a single
application should get pushback.

I think we've done a little better with our guidance to experts in more
recent RFCs, but my spot-checking failed to find one that I liked.
