Hi Jeffrey,

Thanks for your feedback. I've gone ahead and posted the draft update that
also includes the text changes for your other comments that were prepared
by co-authors.

This should help the WG review the latest version during the WGLC that you
have just started. We can continue discussion on the WGLC thread for
further text refinement as needed.

Thanks,
Ketan
