Either controversial, or alternatively, that people are happy with what has been said. > Here are possible directions for our future work. > > 1) Release 3.9.5 as it is, convert to XML as 4.0.0, and resume the > normative work. > 2) Same as 1) but skip 3.9.5. > 3) Same as 1) or 2), but close a bunch of low-hanging fruits first. > 4) Work on multi-arch first. > > What do you think ? Do you have other propositions ? I don't have a strong opinion, except to suggest doing whichever route will cause you the least amount of effort makes the most sense. A number of years ago, when I was very active on the Policy Group, I proposed transitioning the policy's use of the terms SHOULD, MUST, etc. towards the meanings of those words as they are used in the IETF RFCs. I also proposed restructuring the policy document, as it had become somewhat disorganised over the years. I (sadly) do not have time nowadays to be involved in this, but I offer it as a proposal to reconsider now during such a major piece of work as this. Good luck, and thanks for your work!
