Jeroen,

I like to contribute. My first question is if you like to focus on the
standardization effort or the actual usage. The actual usage is yet
slim, but it getting there. Second, do you like to turn this is in a
full paper? In my experience 600-1200 words is so little you hardly have
space to write any substantial like the above outline suggests. (though
you can of course indicate that the actual paper will have this outline).
