Hi Bernie, folks,
  Pain? Nah! that doesn't cover it.
Regarding what happened next, not a lot. I suspect that Hadriel  
volunteered without quite understanding what was involved.

I think by that point Richard Stastny (who initially proposed this)  
had retired, Hadriel had implemented this in two flavours for  
customers -- once in accordance to a VOID draft *and* separately in  
accordance with an Unused draft. (I believe that something not a  
million miles away from unused was involved with the Korean ENUM trial  
as well ;).
For me, having moved text in and out and up and down so many time I  
was losing the ability to see, objections to the data: URL (AFAICT ?!? 
because it was intrinsically evil?!? - ask Rohan) left me unconvinced  
that with me at the typewriter there would be any possibility of this  
getting though IESG before *I* retired.
As I can't see anything wrong with it at all in its latest version  
(having replaced the http: URL with a data: URL as requested), I don't  
know any more.
I do know that this works exactly as described in the draft (qua any  
typos that drifted into it over the years) -- and quite well, at that.

Is that enough?

all the best,
   Lawrence
