Is the following text accurate?  We'd like to avoid confusion that the decision 
is already complete (i.e., without a status change expected or needed) that RFC 
9714 would be moved to Historic when [MNA-PM-with-AMM] is published. 

Original:
  That means the MNA encapsulation is expected to
  provide a more advanced solution, when published as an RFC and it is
  agreed that this document will be made Historic at that time.

Perhaps: 
  That means the MNA encapsulation is expected to
  provide a more advanced solution.  The MPLS Working Group 
  expects that this RFC will be changed to Historic once 
  [MNA-PM-with-AMM] is published as an RFC.


Thank you.
