The current document has been relatively stable for several months. We've exposed this work to large segments of the community (for example at TPAC), but nonetheless the level of comments coming to the document is small. The reviews from the AB and the Process CG have run their course. It is hard to accept that it is being rushed when issues/comments/changes have been few. Bringing the document to the AC seems like the only way to get more eyes on the document. That's the stage we are up to, so that is the reason that the CG is looking for consensus to forward this to the AC for review. Note that there is no current proposal that this should be brought to the AC for approval. I hope that we get AC reps who have not been involved in the discussion to comment and add their ideas - and I think we have a responsibility to respond accordingly and enhance the document in this review cycle.
