Re: New editors draft?

In case more detail is useful: after the call on that Wednesday (June 19th), I sent out an email describing the change:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-tracking/2013Jun/0220.html
> As the editors have indicated their support and we have seen support from the group in working off of the shorter June draft, we will move the June draft to be the new editors' draft. Because this change is significant, we will ensure a link remains to the last published Working Draft (the May WD matches the April 29 editors' draft).

And I made the commit that Saturday:
