Back in early 2016, the IESG began work on revising the Note Well statement [1] to make it more readable and point more clearly at the relevant IETF processes. This work fell between the cracks after being kicked off, and we would now like to bring it to its conclusion.

After substantial community conversation (including a thread in July of 2016 [2]), discussion within the IESG, and consultation with the ombudsteam and IETF's counsel, a final version of the new Note Well that incorporates such input appears below. This revised text will be available in PPT, PDF, and ODP formats from the Working Group Chairs page [3] shortly.

Reviewing the bidding, the last discussion on this was the beginning of April, 2016.   As near as I can tell, the final form of this was the same as original IESG proposal excepting only the addition of the harassment blurb in the body and some very minor tweaking.  In other words,  some fairly useful comments were ignored.

For example - Dave Cridland's suggested wording for the last blurb suggesting when to seek "advice":

The definitive policies are covered in the following documents which you
should read. If you are unsure, please contact a Working Group Chair or an
Area Director prior to participating.

Harald's comment on "not surprising people" https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf/jhpcVpUuVKyOQ-MEXh6CmCrWems

So given the long delay between last commentary and IESG action, and  the lack of IESG response to comments made in 2016, I would suggest that perhaps this is not quite baked and ready for adoption.
