Sam sez:
It's certainly current IESG procedure that we can last call
informationals and experimentals. I don't know that 2026 does or
needs to say anything about it. Unless it is forbidden it seems like
a reasonable decision making tool for the IESG to apply in some cases.
imo - its quite reasonable for the IESG to specifically ask the IETF
community for its views on whatever topic the IESG would like to know
the community's opinion about (and a Last-Call is a tool for the IESG to
use to find out the community's opinion)
In fact, it's sometimes essential, especially in cases where the intended
status of a draft (e.g. Informational vs BCP or PS) may itself be an
open question. I don't see this practice changing any time soon.
