Actually we have bike sheded on names in the past.  Though I don't think people were that concerned about Artifact Binding becoming a marketing name at the time. 

If accepting Mike's name proposal gets us through the specs council, then I am ok with it. 

Yes Nat's calculation was off due to the resubmission.

You should also ask the secretary of the foundation to announce the first meeting of the WG, in which scope approval and the chairs selection should be done.
