Indeed, but I guess you would not recommend to "simply" change a formally adopted policy document, would you? This could be seen as a nasty precedent...
You have a point there and it we might call it an oversight in the PDP to not be able to handle small changes in formatting or typos without going through the whole process again. So for the sake of it all, let's adopt this change using the current proces and focus the discussion on how to handle such changes in the future. I don't expect it to happen much, but the way you put it a small cosmetic error can result in going over a lenghty discussion again and might be a tool to bend things differently by the need to reach consensus again.
I agree. Right now there *is* no other way to change policies, right? I found Thomas' comment a bit strange - like asking the IETF to create a standard without an Internet draft. But he does have a point that the PDP may be heavyweight in cases like this. So you are right, lets tweak the PDP. :) Cheers, -- Shane
