I object to this resolution for three reasons:

First, there's no draft to publish; there are still 25 issues
raised that need to be responded to and addressed, and the
commenters given two weeks to respond to those responses.  (You've
just changed the number of issues from 26 to 25; that's not a
substantial change in the amount of work given that the
'color-correction' text is already drafted.)

Second, I don't see what this resolution says we replace
'color-correction' with such that we can honestly say we have two
conformant implementations in order to exit CR.

Third, I don't see what new information appeared since we resolved
the opposite (add 'color-correction') at the face-to-face meeting.
I think the group ought to make resolutions when it has gathered the
information necessary to make an informed decision, not merely when
there's nobody who happens to be at the current meeting that objects
to it.  If we can make two decisions that are the opposite of each
other less than a month apart without any new information appearing,
I think something's wrong with the process.
