On second thought, I guess I would have to object to
the progression of the AS if it included any changes
to the technical specification.

If one were to rescind the IESG notice, I would think
it appropriate to strength the Security Considerations
of the specifications.  Something like:
   Update functionality SHOULD be restricted to securely
   authenticated clients.

As such, I cannot support progressing the AS in its
current form as it would either result in inadequate
specification of Security Considerations or would
modify the technical specification.
