Joe,

There is an agenda cutoff that WG chairs are supposed
to respect. This time it was:

But there were many late agendas and there was a glitch
in the process of posting them.

For BOFs, the formal BOF proposal must include an agenda,
and that was due this time on February 21.

We need to try and follow our own rules next time.

What we have, IMO, is a deadline, but not a "cutoff" - as in "miss the date and you don't get to hold your WG".

Hi, all,

With agendas appearing ever later - including last night, the issue of cutoff dates should be revisited.

If reading the drafts to be discussed is NOT an issue, then the I-D cutoff dates should be dropped.

If reading the drafts IS an issue, then, by correlary, there should be a corresponding cutoff date for agendas - e.g., 1 week after the last cutoff I-D date. Jjust as I-Ds that pass the cutoffs are not published for this IETF, WGs that fail to meet that deadline should be CANCELLED.

Consider this a proposal, or at least a request.

Joe
