>> I think this reflects an issue in the drafting process for the comment, which resulted in several less-than-perfect translations of the CCWG's decisions into the draft comment.  That's why we have an iterative process of review and comment, since we can't all be part of the process where the words are first being put on the "page" (screen).  It would be a mistake to take the draft comment as gospel.  This is not to impugn the efforts of those involved.  We are all running hard and fast, and that means that you have to circle back and fix something a little more often than if you were in a relaxed work mode.

If it had, we would not have asked for clarification.  What we did not understand, and what was obscure to us, was why that was not the recommendation, given the content of the rest of the comment.
