*NOTE:  My YES vote is meant to signify the the LC has had the opportunity
to review the report, rather than a judgment of the report's quality or
technical adequacy.

As an issue of quality, I believe the the document requires additional copy
editing to clean up issues of tense and subject verb agreement common to
English-language documents authored by people who are not native
English-language speakers.  I personally believe that Kantara should provide
copy editing services for all formal documents (e.g., reports and
recommendations) published by KI or its work groups/discussion groups.  This
would provide a consistent level of quality of our outputs and prevent our
being viewed as amateurs.  While the report is not fatally flawed, I fear
that the quality of the current document may devalue the KI brand.

On the question of technical value, I would prefer not to reread the entire
document to see how the comments referenced in the "**Disposition of
Comments for a Draft Recommendation Review Period**," but I find the
responses listed in the matrix to be frustratingly sparse.  I would prefer
that each of the comments be addressed separately so that I could understand
which have resulted in changes and which have not.  (I also recognize that
this would require an additoinal hour or two of someone's valuable time.)*
