Ed,

The RFC process that we started this summer is formally and
intentionally closed.  Your post, regardless of it's formatting,
naming or intent, will not be accepted into the RFC archive.

First, Dan Sugalski has accurately summarized the nature of the
process, describing the current state of 'pause' we find ourselves in.

Second, recent discussion of Bryan Warnock's PDD 0 addresses the
issue of adaptability of the Perl 6 process.  The thread (from
this week) starts here:

Again, the RFC process is closed.  If you have ideas on how we can
improve the quality of documents yet-to-be-written (e.g. the PDD series)
or the process of obtaining such documents, then please focus on
work that remains to be done, not artifacts that don't need to be polished.
