The sponsoring AD would like to know what is desired in the RFC Editor 
note: What would you like the short title to be? "CFBL Recommendations"? 
That said, I'm happy to have you fix it with other items (such as 
s/codify/document, etc.) as such come up.

As for the "About MAAWG": Personally, I think it would be better to put 
the paragraph in the Acknowledgments section, or it could be simply put 
as a paragraph in the References section under reference [1]. I find the 
Last Call discussion pretty convincing that this text is untoward in the 
Abstract.

Unlike Eliot, I am not as worried about substantive content complaints. 
These are recommendations from MAAWG, and they are being published as an 
informational, non-consensus document so that a WG can refer to the 
document. Such a WG may agree with all of the recommendations, but more 
likely will have some alternative advice when referring to this 
document. I'll certainly discuss with the IESG whether an IESG note 
explaining this is necessary, but I think the standard template ("This 
document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is 
published for informational purposes. It has been approved for 
publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG).") is 
probably sufficient.
