I thought "Committee Draft" has always existed, and it was
"Committee Specification" that went away--to our chagrin--and
now appears to be making a comeback.

And it would seem to make sense to make the last version 4 
DTD a Committee Specification as soon as we deem it ready.
Then we can move forward through the process (that might
take months) to make it an OASIS Standard.
