I don't know if this is the place to discuss it, but from the recent
mailing, it's apparent that there is a new naming convention: P*XXXX*R*Y*.

My question is this: is the R*Y* part a revision number, so that as a paper
gets revised it *doesn't* get a whole new number? Because that'd be good.

Yes, the RY part is the revision number. Every paper starts at R0.

Augmenting Anthony reply: If you want to write a proposal that would
be the n-th revision of a previous N-numbered document, you would
still need to allocate a fresh R number and that first n-th revision
would still start with R0, *not* Rn.

I'm not yet sure how P numbering works, if authors X want to write a
revision to PnnnnRx of author Y. I'll return with that information
once I do know this.

OK, I got the answer to that: In such a case author Y would allocate a
new document number Pyyyy and would use PyyyyR0 for the first revision
to PnnnnRx.

Summarizing: A given main author "owns" a P-number and the R series is
not necessarily related to absolute revision of other N or P numbers
which can also be revised.
