As far as I can tell, the gist of the LC+CR proposal can be achieved
within the context of Process-20051022. The underlying issue the
proposal appears to try to address is "how to prevent a spec from
entering the dreaded LC->CR->LC->CR->... cycle". Of course the proposal
doesn't eliminate the cycle problem (a spec can still have a
LCCR->LCCR->... cycle), it just appears to "shift" the problem.
Rather than change LC and CR, it seems like it would be more effective
to attack the cycle problem via Education and Outreach f.ex. create Best
Practices that describe the cycle problem, provide guidance on how to
avoid the problem, encourages early testing, encourages early
implementations, etc. (Very few new WGs are created each year and if the
new WG Chair(s) is inexperienced, the Team should provide extra support
to the group to make sure they understand the potential `gotchas` and
how to avoid them.)

The proposal is to close this issue with no further action.
Charles 'chaals' (McCathie) Nevile, 22 Jan 2014, 12:50:31Keeping the status quo and doing more education was not seen as doing enough to change the way the Working Groups develop specifications. This issue was closed in favor of a more specific proposal related to this proposal made here. The more specific proposal is described in Issue 83.
