Hi Steven,

Q1: Yes, I agree that we should initially aim to standardise a scheme
that gives two encoding states.

Q2: Yes, I agree that we should simultaneously produce one (or more)
experimental extensions to provide a third encoding state.

Q3: Yes, I think the PCN WG has sufficient information to make a
decision on the way forward for a standards track PCN scheme. This
should be done in parallel with working on the experimental extensions.

Toby
