Re: [web-annotation] Reference to text encoding in spec perhaps not appropriate

Taking into account that we need a week to have a review of the 
documents before voting on publishing, if we don't start this this 
Monday, we slip with our schedule again. We have one open issue right 
now; can we try to get specific proposals on how to close the issue, 
please? We have been dragging this last issue for more than two weeks 
now...
