Small Issue #3: I object to anonymous review
The current review is anonymous and this draft does not seem to change
that. I don't like anonymous review - it's not how we do things at IETF
and it encourages really bad behavior. I have several emails with an
expert reviewer relayed via IANA where the conversation was going no where
- once I knew the name of the reviewer, the whole conversation changed and
stuff quickly came back to the realm of sane. I'm not willing to forward
these emails to the list as that would just not be kind to anyone but I am
happy to forward them to the IESG if they think looking at them is really
critical.
I can see your point, and I personally have no problem with disclosing the
reviewer identity. What do others think?
AFAICT, the experts team reports to IANA. We make recommendations to
them. They are the ones who have the conversation with the applicant.
They can take our advice or not - that's their decision.
I think you are pretty misrepresenting the situation. My impression of the
reality of the situation is that if the IANA did not like the advice of the
expert reviewer, they might ask the AD to override but short of that they
pretty much do whatever the expert says.
