I started to read, but got confused (stoped reading), why you are titling it as creating WG-draft and mentioning the adoption into the document. I understand that the creating first is *individual-draft* not *WG-draft*,

Incorrect, the first incarnation of a draft can be a WG draft. The only requirement is that the chairs conclude that the existence such a draft has WG consensus.

the adoption happens after the creation of individual draft. If creating is WG creation, then it is already adopted as *idea* not *draft*, and then draft-00 is the WG-draft.

 

I don't see the process clear at all, I maybe missing something,

Yes you are.

Hi,

Dave Crocker and I have this little draft [1] discussing the process and considerations for creating formal working group drafts that are targeted for publication.

We believe that this may help clarify some of the issues and concerns associated with this part of the process. We are targeting this as Informational (i.e. commentary on existing process, not new normative definition of process) and would like your input.

What is not clear?
What have we got wrong?
How should we resolve the remaining editor notes?

Thanks,
Adrian
