Don,

To make it clear to the readers, I wasn't acting as
the AD asking the WG to push the draft to STD at
this instance, just discussing.

I didn't know about such thing... or did you mean IETF's submission
to JTC1?

Definitely. It actually does (that's why it will
have to wait in the rfc-ed queue until ISIS-TE
goes through.)

I haven't reviewed it with this in mind.

No. In fact, I think this is the only type of doc JTC1 would
have no problem normatively referring to.
