+1 for all of this.

I won't say that the effort of aligning with comics was counter-productive. Far from it!
It's just the workload.

Maybe a concrete process improvement point: flag (shout!) versions of documents that are "stable and ready for comments" so that the people with less time know when they should focus their limited resource.

And please: change mail topics as often as possible. What (partly) makes long threads more inefficient is their keeping the same topic for a while, especially when only specific aspects are discussed... (this would also be an action on me, of course ;-) )

Cheers,

Antoine
