After more reflection I still do not support this.

I understand the motivation of NTIA and the arguments in favour. They
do not convince me that we should do extra work or add extra words:

I remain convinced that all we need is a description of transition and
the post-transition state plus a description of the process to develop
this description. We should describe our own process and provide
pointers to the public record of how the customer communities
developed their responses to us. Their record already includes the
principles they developed and discussions about alternatives. We can
ask for *specific* clarification by the communities if we feel
something is missing from their response to us or from the existing
public record.

Of course we should add our evaluation whether the process and the
result meet the criteria set out at the beginning.

There is no need for us to re-tell the story of how the proposals were
developed. Re-telling the story is unnecessary work which also has a
great risk of changing the story, even unintentionally. We should not
expose ourselves to the risk of causing confusion or maybe even
failure by re-interpreting the public record of the communities.
Re-telling also creates more words. As you know I advocate the minimum
number of words possible.

We should not invent new requirements or criteria on the fly unless we
have very strong consensus in the ICG that they are absolutely
necessary for our deliverable and they were not foreseeable at the
outset. Asking the communities at this point for the a description of
the alternatives they considered is such a new requirement and I do
not consider it necessary.
