-**The forthcoming draft is in [final review](work-in-progress).**
+***All PRs from our final review feedback for the next draft have been posted!***

+_The draft will be published as soon as we have sufficient reviews from the spec team and/or implementation owners.  As this is summer vacation season, that may still take a few weeks._
 
 This draft has also taken more time than expected because it tackles deep, long-term issues that have long been a challenge for JSON Schema.  This includes building in a formal extensibility mechanism so that we can more easily draw a line to finalize the contents of the Core and Validation specifications.
 
 Additionally, numerous life issues reduced the availability of key contributors during the process.
 
+And finally, the feedback process demonstrated that our first attempt at a publishable draft needed substantial additional work, adding another few months to the timeline.
+
+Since the most intractable problems are all addressed to one degree or another in this draft, we do not anticipate future drafts taking so long.

 ### The Path to Standardization
 
 The JSON Schema project intends to shepherd all four draft series to RFC status.  Currently, we are continuing to improve our self-published Internet-Drafts. The next step will be to get the drafts adopted by an IETF Working Group.  We are actively investigating how to accomplish this.
