There has been no substantive discussion about Stage Management since release of the -04 draft, because all of the bugs in the current RFC were fixed in the -03 draft and consensus had been reached on the technical issues, *and* because the few paragraphs that commented on privacy issues were nothing more than advice to implementors, and also were fine as they stood. I realized you were asked by the Chair to do this, but it appears, in fact, simply to have stalled progress. Can it now be put back together again, and move on to Draft Standard status?
