We met today and agreed to do it this week.

We realize that it will take a while, perhaps a very long while, to
find and fix all the places it says "Simplified" and change them to
"Revised". There's no chance of finding and fixing everything all at
once across all of the IETF's web sites and tools (xml2rfc has to
change, for example) so it'll be a rolling fix.

Once again, the license itself has not changed and will not change, it's just
referring to it by the correct name.  Having read the TLP in detail while
reformatting it and looking for other mistakes, I do not expect that we
will make any other changes or fixes in the forseeable future.  I sure
hope not, this one word is painful enough as it is.

R's,
John
