I've since been told that the draft doesn't actually document current practice (don't know the details), so this probably needs to be fixed.

What "needs to be fixed"? That the draft doesn't document current practice? Given that's the stated goal, I'd appreciate clarification from the authors on what they think needs to be done before it meets that goal, and whether they're willing to work on it.

As far as I'm aware, the document does document current practice.

It does not. It describes a mixture of some of the current practice and some aspirational hopes for how things might be done. Further, it is incomplete in many aspects.

At least, what it describes was true back in 2010 when I wrote the code and as far as I know nothing as changed (i.e., the published files has not changed).

The document goes well beyond describing the files, and this is where it fails. Further, the files are not the only way that the trust anchor is published, so the document is fairly incomplete.

Well, as a technicality, I don't see that this draft was ever adopted by the WG.

Perhaps that might be a good next step?

Might be. I was attempting to suggest a shorter path to publication might be possible, given the extensive record of discussion on the document over several years-- we've been known to do a combined adoption/WGLC on a document not expected to need much work in the WG.

I'm not sure what adoption would give us as the document aims to document current practice, and nothing - except clarifications - is up for discussion.

If it is not up for discussion, then the document should not be progressed in the IETF at all. Instead, the description of the ICANN's publication methodology should be published by ICANN.

This WG should instead consider a very different document: how the IETF thinks that the DNSSEC trust anchors should be published in order to help DNS operators. Joe Abley has an expired (?) draft on this topic. A discussion of what ICANN and others should do for publication seems quite relevant to the aims of this WG.
