Status:
Item 1 and 2a is complete       (thank you felix)
Item 2b  is addressed by a series of editorial actions ( 227-234) and is 
in progress
Item 3
        task A--has been started ( Asir has an action item to produce a 
strawman for which section the new guidelines should be included in)
        task B-- once sections are identified, the owner of the section 
will then update the section with the new text in the new format
Item 4 
        each section owner will write up a paragraph summarizing the 
changes to that section and these will be included with the delivery 
        of the working draft to the WG
Item 5
        this will follow our "normal" process of producing working drafts 
and will include tagging the new version, including statements in the 
        log, and generating a diff of this version against the last 
working draft as well as sending a mail to the working group which
        includes the change summary, and a pointer to the diff and the new 
working draft
