Hi, thanks, Nick and Erik for taking this up. Given what was said... On Mon, Feb 16, 2015 at 11:35:53AM +0100, Erik Bais wrote: [..]
Previous policy proposals have had clarification text added between phases, so it's possible that adding the text wouldn't necessarily delay the proposal - obviously this is a decision for the ap-wg chairs.
As we are going into a full re-styling of the Transfer Policies into a single document, we will have to see if it is going to be required to do that in this particular version or in the next re-style. There is little value imho to add clarification text here as we are going to cut the text in a couple weeks into a new document. If that new version needs a beter explanation it would make more sense in doing it there.
... I'd actually go forward now (that is: go to last call as announced) and spend the extra brain cycles on making sure that the final unified transfer policy document is very clean, language-wise and policy-wise. Erik has clearly stated the intent to do such a unified document, so if what we have now is sufficiently clear policy-wise (which seems to be the case, as per the impact analysis), I'd rather not spend another round on wordsmithing, or think about what sort of language changes are fine going from "review" to "last call" phase (typos, obviously) and what would consist a policy change and should go to another round of review. So: Nick, if that is OK with you? (In the upcoming document, it would be actually good to have the language cleanup right in the discussion phase, and not in review phase, where larger changes would incure another impact analysis...)
