At this point, a working week through the four week last call, I am wondering

version and risk raising a number of points already covered by others.

What do you think?

Half of one, six dozen of the other. :-)

There's no doubt in my mind that there will be a revision coming to address a bunch of comments, and you'll notice that I haven't even started to tackle the comments in the thread that Ted started. (That's in my edit buffer and is next on my list.) I certainly wouldn't mind hearing comments that haven't been brought up yet, or hearing disagreements with comments already made, but I certainly wouldn't be distressed if you waited for the next go-round either.

My sense is that the revision is going to have a lot of little changes (sorting the "actual history" from the "what's new" is going to require a bunch of smallish edits), and I need to adjust some of the framing of some of the bigger points, but I don't see drastic thematic changes coming. (Obviously I've got some 'xplaining to do on some of the themes, and it's always possible that Ted convinces me that I'm completely wrongheaded on one or more of them, but that's my current assessment.) I've got a bunch of airplane time in the next 4 days, so I might even get this out by sometime next week.

And remember, the Last Call ends during Vancouver, so there's certainly going to be longer than average time at the end to deal with comments.

Does that help you decide?
