Since the goal of testing for CR is to confirm that it is possible to independently implement the spec and achieve interoperability, why is one month of "stability" necessary? If someone ships an implementation that passes tests and demonstrates that interoperability has been achieved, why is it necessary to wait another month? Thanks, Adrian.
