Well, I was just asking about your willingness to continue as an editor.
Since you're the only active editor (to the best of my knowledge), the
distinction between *the* editor and *an* editor isn't that big. However, it
is worth noting that if someone wishes to actively participate in editing
the protocol specification, this opportunity exists.  Let Jim or I know if
you're interested.

Would you like to send out URLs of the mail messages containing those
issues?  I have some time that I'd like to spend trying to resolve them, and
move things forward.
