In section 6.3.9.3 the opening paragraph mentions Dissent:

If there was any dissent in Advisory Committee reviews, the Team must publish the substantive content of the dissent to W3C and the general public, and must formally address the comment at least 14 days before publication as a W3C Recommendation.

The current phrasing implies AC reps can dissent on a Recommendation review without filing a formal objection, but in section 5.7.1 it's mentioned that "For clarity, in the context of an AC Review, dissent must be expressed as a Formal Objection."

The opening paragraph in 6.3.9.3 should be revised to clear this up. There wouldn't be publication if there was dissent until the Formal Objection is cleared.
