I think we agree on the goal. At the moment, I am not confident that the words match the goal. Given the wording we have, assuming there is clear rough consensus of the community against a document advancing, on what basis would the RSAB be able to send the document back to the RSWG for rework / reconsideration? It is possible we have that in Peter's wording, but I don't see it. Yours, Joel On 1/6/2022 11:37 PM, Eric Rescorla wrote: > > > On Thu, Jan 6, 2022 at 8:18 PM Joel M.
