Hi,

These look good to me.

However, we also need a bit of (visible) documentation telling people how this works,
and in particular how that relates to resolution.

Something like this (with a bit of extra context to make sense to newcomers):

* If there's been a resolution, the Pull Request needs to be based on what it says.
  If the spec has an editor, they should follow up and review/merge it.
  If the spec does not have an editor, then [... insert what we expect people to do ...]

* If there hasn't been a resolution, the Pull Request may be merged as is
  if what it does it trivial and/or the spec is early stage,
  but quite possibly it will need to be discussed by the WG before being approved.
  Using the Agenda+ label is a good way to bringing a proposed changed to the attention
  of the WG.
