  I like your document, but I had started one at:

http://www.striker.ottawa.on.ca/~aland/asrg-rmx/proposal.html

  Yours contains more detail, and a better outline than what I had.
It's pretty much where I was heading.

  i.e. The document should discuss reasons, scope, impact, cost, and
changes to the net *before* it goes into technical details about the
solution.  The reason is simple: there has been too much controversy
and nonsense on ASRG about the proposals.  That controversy MUST be
addressed in the document, or we will end up going through the
nonsense all over again.

  Your document was posted only in the past few days.  This list has
existed for 3 weeks now, and there have been a number of calls for
contributions to a combined document, with the main result being
updates to a few individual proposals.

  I like your first draft at a combined document.  But as you're the
author of a proposal, it may be better to have a third party edit the
combined document.

  I'll update the web page this week.
