Although I'm an IAB member, I'd rather make my one comment on this draft in public. I think it misses one point that should be mentioned. The easiest way to explain it is to suggest new text: 4.4. Avoiding interference between publication streams Although diversity of views and alternative solutions are common and will commonly be published, it would be highly undesirable for documents published in the different streams to interfere actively with each other, for example by specifying incompatible extensions to the same protocol or alternative uses for the same parameter value. For this reason, the procedures adopted for the four streams will include appropriate checks and balances to avoid such interference. Specifically, this will include a procedure (currently documented in [RFC3932]) to avoid Independent Submissions actively interfering with IETF Documents.
