Re: CfC: to publish Encrypted Media Extensions specification as a First Public Working Draft (FPWD)

Robert, I agree with your objectives and personally would support them but
I don't support the objection as I don't believe that advancement to FPWD
should be a time for people to demand resolution on particular issues. LC
or CR sure, but not on FPWD. It's a procedural thing for me.
