Re: [Admin] Wiki pages for comments

This is great!  I just wish there were a better mechanism that would 
enforce the workflow.  In the XHTML 2 working group we used a customized 
issue tracker that helped us ensure each issue went through each step.  
And, as a side benefit, had a script that automatically generated the 
DoC from the database.

So better set up the process while we have only a few of those. Note that the page is for comments coming from outside of the working group only.
