I propose the following approach:

1. Set a date for the first drafts of the various position papers to be
   finalized
2. Set a time period for the technical committee to review all of those
   papers and think about them and possibly have some discussion, and to
   produce a list of questions or concerns that don't feel adequately
   addressed
3. Give all of the position drafters an opportunity to further revise
   their positions based on feedback from that discussion
4. Have a vote based on those final position papers
