Steve, 
Not that I need to justify or explain this to you or anyone else here...  I
agree it is quite interesting that we all arrived at similar conclusions with 
NO express coordination on this end - perhaps it's indicative of finally
giving due consideration to what operationalizing and being held captive 
to such things entails - not simply 'running code, [standards], and run 
away', having to operationalize certainly impacts perspective.

The purpose of last call is to encourage folks to review the documents, 
I'd have thought you would welcome such reviews, unless the goal is 
for "the authors" to simply prescribe to the working group and use SIDR 
as a publication medium for work done outside the IETF.  Furthermore, 
given the barrage of documents that will eventually lead to operational 
requirements for some folks involved in these efforts, I'm very concerned 
they'll not get proper review.

BTW: if you'd really like to evaluate contributions and funding sources
in full let me know, I'm sure I can plot some dependency graphs for you ;-)

I'll say no more on this topic here and stand by the technical merit of 
comments made -- if ANYONE would like more details on any of this 
find me in TPE.
