So, here's my promise to you. I'll track down McGregor, and we'll
write something up. I will work on moving my Proposed Standards,
assuming that the IESG is actually _interested_ in doing its job.
The proof will be in the pudding. In earlier times, I expected to
go from internet-draft to Proposed Standard in 2 IETF meetings, and
to Full Standard in under 1 year on average, 2 years for extremely
controversial items.
Did you ever get what you expected....?
Yes, certainly. And when I didn't, I helped lead the effort to reform
the structure of the IETF.... That worked for a couple more years.
(Without reorganization, we couldn't even have a IPSec WG. Steve Kent
prevented it.)
Sadly, the IETF changed from an organization where Vint Cerf, even as
he was being criticized, could wear a bathing suit under his perpetual
3-piece wear. A sense of humor and camaraderie has been lost.
