The Proposal Pool was ratified on 28 April 2003, between which date
and now I believe we have a complete archive of public messages, but
of course I'm not expecting you to search 6 years of archives for
proposals.  Rule 2202 does not require a correct report, only a
corrected one.  It was clear, at the time you ratified the report,
that the report was incorrect and could have been corrected by adding
almost-5269 to the pool.
