Well...

2.17 ...  The TC is not required to acknowledge or use any Contribution.
2.18 ...  must include a list of people who participated in the development
of the specification


So, if you get a comment, but don't actually use it (i.e. not changing
anything in the spec), one could argue that the comment didn't help
in developing the spec, therefore the name isn't required to be added
to the list of acknowledgements.

Of course, if the comment does in fact results in changing the draft,
then the name must be on the list (but since you've changed the spec,
you're in for another round of review anyway...)


Best regards

Bart

Hmmm...

You could easily run into an infinite loop here:

1) Send document out for public review
2) Receive comments on public-comment list
3) Add name of comment author to acknowledgements page
4) Because the text has now changed, need to send out for public review
again
5) Goto step 2
