RE: EPP to Draft: Next Steps

Scott looks like you have a significant group saying don't version - I will
defer to the collective given that clearly no one wants the hassle of a
version change.

Patrick I still think you have a point but it seems like not a strong enough
one for this audience.

Agree. Schema is normative.

A problem only for server(s) written (imprudently) to the (non-normative)
text.

Agree.

Delta text, not version identifier and definitely not schema.
