Understandable, although, pace any showstoppers, the question currently 
is whether there is consensus toward pursuing this course.

Here's my thought on "order of battle": I will prepare the current text 
and submit it tomorrow.

Then I will incorporate the various pending bits of text plus the 
necessary changes for UTF-8 into a new prototype draft, which I will 
publish on inter-locale.com. When the ID Editors publish the draft 
mentioned just above, I'll submit this new draft. Given their recent 
history of prompt action, this could even be sometime Friday. This would 
give us a basis for diff comparisons [and XML2RFC source] (in case we 
decide to revert Yet One More Time).

Since I've already done this exercise once, it shouldn't prove to be 
that difficult.

hex escapes in the original registry to Unicode.
