hi Harald,

this sometimes doesnt work. for example, I submitted a 00 version
working group draft on Oct 18 draft at 2 am (PST). I dont think
the WG chair could have stayed up that late to send out the draft
for me before the submissin deadline (6 am PST). :)

I prefer just cc'ing the WG chairs when I submit the draft,
and the WG chairs, as soon as possible, sending a mail confirming
that the document should be processed as a working group document.
can you ask the secretariat if they are okay with this? :)

that was what the procedure used to be - and someone had to keep track of the pile of I-D submissions for which there was no response (yet) from the WG chair. That extra load is what the secretariat has been trying to avoid during the rush.

submit the -00 document themselves,


I've discussed this option with the secretariat, and they think this
(having the WG chair submit or forward the document on behalf of the
author was the thing suggested) is a very reasonable thing to do - for
the spring IETF meeting.
(didn't get it on the table long enough before this meeting to change).

No opinion yet on the cutoff dates - still reading.
