Chris's point is, and I'll second it, that the IAHC comments and
furthermore the draft itself are not evolving.

I've been reading this list diligently since the draft came out. Noone from
the IAHC has ever admitted that there is anything wrong with the draft.
Every post from the IAHC is in defense of the draft. We've been told that
there is no interim draft forthcoming. It seems that this "public comment
period" is nothing more than a period of time in which the IAHC must defend
it's draft. If that's the case, just say so. If I'm mistaken, I appologize.
If I'm mistaken, please list what parts of the draft have any chance of
changing.

This is not a personal attack. It just seems that there is a misconception
between the public and the IAHC over the purpose of this period of time
between submission of the draft and the finalization of the draft. It also
seems that there is a degree of doubt and confusion as to whether our
comments have any chance of affecting the final draft.

thanks,
