Exactly my point.
If we are opening the issue, then I'll make my situation clear. I am
willing to do the editorial work of maintaining the draft text, merging in
corrections and changes that appear to have consensus, and keeping an
issues list. I probably will not be able to attend IETF meetings, though
there may be exceptions. I have little experience of implementing NNTP
servers and clients, but do have extensive experience working on standards
documents, so hopefully I will be better at ensuring the specification is
readable stand-alone than some people would be.
