about Last Call

QA Working Group --

The act of publishing Last Call will entail some stuff that we haven't paid 
proper attention to yet.  See [1].  For example, item #1 in [1] means that 
we will have to formally make a decision and be sure that it is 
minuted.  Seattle topic, I think.

An interesting question is about item #2:
"The Working Group estimates which W3C Working Groups and other parties 
should review the last call draft. It is preferable to secure review 
commitments before announcing the last call."

One obvious "estimate" is:  EVERYONE (all WGs).  According to our plan, 
conformance to these documents is going to be mandatory for all 
WGs.  Perhaps there is a smaller subset, but it is not obvious.

If "all" is indeed the case, then the 2nd sentence of the quote implies 
that we will be busy with some initial WG outreach between Seattle and 3rd 
February (target publication date).

Thoughts?
