My understanding is that we need reviewers (or reviews).

A quick read seems to suggest the current draft may benefit from some
editorial work before starting a WGLC ... I'm happy to offer comments to
help this, but that doesn't remove the need for other people to step up
as reviewers.

Offers please to WG Chairs and/or authors!
