Tim also mentioned
(https://cabforum.org/pipermail/public/2018-March/013076.html) that you
would need to post a new version, even with no changes (this was a bit
odd but it's the rules :). Your e-mail on March 14th clearly indicates a
v2 but I'm having a little trouble following the discussion dates
mentioned in your previous posts. On March 14th, you indicate that the
discussion period ends on March 23rd. In today's message, you indicate
that the discussion period ends tomorrow (April 3rd) and then we vote.
It seems a bit strange to what we've seen in the past :)
Thanks,
Dimitris.
