Daniel:
I would not call it a publication, but rather an interim publication
awaiting finalization. I then think we wait for Names and then publish
the final, assuming the changes are minor - or consider a new comment
period if the changes are substantial, and submit as appropriate related
to the need for any further comment. A slight modification to your
suggestion because I am concerned we are starting to confuse the
non-initiate in the steps of the process and the status of the proposal...
Agree on no unilateral modification of the charter.
