This call for adoption will end tomorrow!  So far on list, we've heard
from the editors of the draft, the chairs, Simon Josefsson, and Heiko
Schäfer.

My understanding is that the editors proposed some changes to address
Simon's concerns about scope and use patterns, but haven't released a
new draft with those changes.  Those proposed changes are here:

If other folks from the WG are interested, now would be good time to
weigh in about whether this draft seems worth considering as a working
group topic.

In particular:

So far, I'm not seeing a lot of on-list commitment to review, offer
text, or consider implementing any resulting proposals.

As Stephen said, you don't need to think that draft is fully correct now
for adoption; if you think it is a reasonable starting point for WG
work, and it's something worth pursuing, that's what we're looking for.
