That is a good summary of the discussion of the year so far.

(If anyone wonders why I’m so slow to pick up v3 in kramdown-rfc:
It is just too hard to guess what v3 actually is.
And it’s changing, while stability of the authoring format is the whole point of kramdown-rfc.
So generating v2-v3 and hoping that the RFC editor will bang the v3 derived from it into shape is the best transition strategy right now.)
