Due to receiving only positive feedback, the -06 version incorporating
the WG consensus has been submitted for publication.
It can also be found at, along with a number of htmlwdiffs:
http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/ietf/temp/
Please bring up any [serious] issues you might have with -06 version
by Monday, September 6th at the latest. I'll try to get this on the
next IESG agenda (DL for items is on 9th).
Thanks!
