That wouldn't surprise me.

At a minimum, I'm sort of surprised that the scope isn't the WGs the AD is
responsible for.

Within my WGs, I'm usually pretty much clued and up to date. On Martin's
side of TSV, I'm much less involved, and don't read every message.

And TSV is one of the smaller areas. I'm sure that practice varies between
areas, of course.

I hope someone asks about this at plenary next week :-)

clarification, better documentation, and recognising some other new RFCs
and changes. But the document itself has changed quite a lot and structured
differently than RFC 3979 was.
