Brian,
While I agree with this, I also believe that there have to be
effective safeguards against bad judgments prevailing for too
long. And I believe that those have largely slipped away from
us... unless we believe that making changes, unvalidated by WG
or mailing list consensus, simply to get a DISCUSS removed is
the right way to get to "high quality, relevant technical and
engineering documents...".
