As long as Apache is not in the business of also creating
specifications, there will be by definition some separation
between code and spec processes, and I would like to work
with the ASF to try improve this.

Wait ... why can't a specification be a releasable, just like a codebase? The only issue, as I see it, would be enforcement of compliance. And Roy even put forward a proposed license amendment for such things.

As you saying that if the ASF would host the specification, that you and the rest of the AMQP IP holders would be willing to contribute and manage the specification here under ASF practices?

I would be in favor of such an approach. Honestly, I would vastly prefer to have Open Specifications managed under ASF processes than under the JCP, OASIS, etc.

I very much agree.
