LC on Test and Primer - timescale issues

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the current intent is:
- to create a Test WD and take it to LC
- to take primer WD to LC

Realistically, these intents will take time.

I would be unhappy, on procedurally grounds, with a Test WD whose first 
WD was a Last Call.

I would suggest:

- a first Test WD, very very soon. e.g. something ready for WG review in 
two weeks, publish in three.

- taking Test and Primer to LC during April, maybe towards the end.

- I think I would advocate taking the GRDDL spec to CR along with test 
to LC. This is then a "call-for-implementations"

- PR is then late May / mid June

This timescale strikes me as ambitious, (too ambitious?), and puts quite 
a lot of pressure on the editors of both Test and Primer. Personally, I 
would advise them to think hard about whether they have the time and 
effort, and if not, the group should reconsider whether we need to Rec 
Track these documents. Clearly, we will have a better set of 
deliverables if we do, and as long as their is sufficient commitment 
from the editors to do the necessary work, then I am supportive.
