I would like to ask a clarifying question: does this mean that RFC 
editors are not going to start editing the document until after 2 months 
since approval of a document, or does it mean that RFC editors start 
editing right away, can issue AUTH48 request, but will delay publication 
until after 2 months?

I think the latter is better, because (a) appeals are not that frequent 
and (b) AUTH48 usually takes way longer than 2 days ;-).

Alexey

P.S. I apologize in advance for asking the question before reading the 
whole thread. Maybe it was already asked.
