If that is the case, the question is whether we issue one request to W3C with 6+ transitions or whether we issue a series of separate requests (I have just asked Philippe what the preference is under the new publication process, I presume we will have an answer at TPAC).

I will yield to whatever the WG decides :-). One specific point, though: I believe we should at least sync the list of documents that seem ready to go (DI and the two cryptosuites) with the VDM spec. It just looks funny if the DI spec goes to CR with the VCDM staying behind…

I agree that the status list and the jose-cose documents can go with their own pace.

WDYT?
