Edits recieved during a last call should be folded back in (if significant) and a new draft issued. I don't believe another working group last call need be issued unless there are substantive changes. If there are any errors introduced (or further arguments), they can be handled during IETF last call. Note that interoperability reports might affect a draft; for draft standard, the requirement is 2 interoperable implementations for each feature of the protocol. For the base HTTP spec, my current thoughts are to go over the interoperability reports with Henrik sometime in a week or two (by mail, as Henrik is a world traveller for most of the next month), and see if there are going to be any features we have to either get implemented, or drop from the HTTP spec. I think we're in pretty good shape, but won't be fully confident until more are in and we've checked off each feature. Once I see if anything needs to be dropped, I'll issue a base HTTP spec with whatever editorial work needs to be done from comments. - Jim
