+Greetings, (repeating from our discussion on IRC)
+
+No prior messages about your proposal have made it to the list, and no
+mention of the assignment had been made in the wiki.
+
+The first I ever heard of this scheme was long after you'd written the
+document when I attempted to assign the number to something else then
+noticed something existed at that name.
+
+Since you had previously created BIP documents without public
+discussion (e.g. "BIP 22"
+https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/OP_CHECKSIGEX_DRAFT_BIP [...] Or, I wonder
+did your emails just get eaten that time too?), I'd just assumed
+something similar had happened here.
+
+I didn't take any action at the time I first noticed it, but after
+someone complained about bitcoin-qt "not confirming with BIP38" to me
+today it was clear to me that people were confusing this with
+something that was "officially" (as much as anything is) supported, so
+I moved the document out. (I've since moved it back, having heard
+from you that you thought that it had actually been
+assigned/announced).
+
+With respect to moving it forward: Having a wallet which can only a
+single address is poor form. Jean-Paul Kogelman has a draft proposal
+which is based on your BIP38 work though the encoding scheme is
+different, having been revised in response to public discussion.
+
+Perhaps efforts here can be combined?
+
