Convert RAC DBs to single instance

Specific platform for the issue I have to deal with is 11gR2 on AIX - but that's probably not strictly relevant.
I've been asked to do this for 3 RAC DBs, each deployed on 2-node clusters. One of the nodes on each cluster is to be decommissioned.

A search of MOS reveals a number of links useful for converting single-instance DBs to RAC - but I can find nothing helpful on converting a RAC DB to single-instance.
Do I simply follow documentation on removing a node from a cluster, and leave myself with a single-node RAC cluster?
If that's a valid way to proceed, will the end result differ in any way from an Oracle Restart DB?

Howdy, Stranger!
