Yeah, but our charter clearly doesn’t let us fix JSON.  What we need is to
do something like this, then re-charter to produce a doc that provides real
guidance, so that, as someone in this thread pointed out, other Working
Groups will have something to point to and won’t, as is currently happening
in Jose, have to write explicit language forbidding dupes, etc, into their
drafts.  So I’m in favor of doing this minimal point-out-the-problems work
and moving on. -T
