I'm just trying to figure out what we will do with the document in the
near future.

I think we will not get it adopted in OPSWG.

If we want to publish it soon, I would be willing to double check it
and clean it up, make it such that xml3 is used appropriately and send
it off to the RFC editor.

If we want to keep it living at GitHub and not do the RFC publishing
soon, than Markdown might be the better choice.

I don't think this works out. But we can publish it anyway. We just
need to figure out what we want...
