All

Authors have produced a new version which we feel addresses Paul H’s comments 
on “MAY” and a few other changes. 

Id like the working group to take a look at the update. 

I’m heading back home tonight so will have more to say tomorrow

I'm hoping that "we" in those two sentences are "we the WG", not "we the WG 
chairs". But even in that case, it does not match the outcome of the WG 
discussion on this point. No one felt that any code point listed as "MAY" could 
be used to "force implementers to support" the algorithm; the entire point of 
MAY in that column is to differentiate from RECOMMENDED and MUST.

I have looked at the thread again, and I still believe you are wrong. There was 
a lot of support for allowing easier access to get initial code points as long 
as they had to later ask the IETF for upgrading.

Also, the thread had nothing to do with "experimenting": there are already code 
points for private use.
