Seven individuals (approximate) submitted comments during the Last 

Call.  That's not much in terms of end-to-end read of the draft.

So, I am left with a few questions:
- What is the similar forcing function if we use a wiki?

- Will the number of people that can make updates eliminate the need 

for such a forcing function?

- Who designates the editor-in-chief of the wiki?

HTTPbis has a good Wiki due to the efforts of two persons.  The rest 

of the IETF, excluding the IESG, do not believe that it is worth the 

effort updating a Wiki.  Instead of discussing the above questions it 

is easier to create an Wiki page and leave it to anyone with a tools 

login who cares to update it.
