Whoops, I meant that the draft and implementation match, sorry about that.
Cheers,

Stephen,
Your goal is laudatory, but the devil will be in the details. For example,
you wrote:
Note also that this experiment just needs an implementation that
makes it possible for the WG chairs and responsible AD to verify (to
the extent they chose) that the implementation matches the draft.
Will this require WG chairs and/or document shepherds to do a code review
to verify that the implementation and code match? A better criteria might
be that there be at least two independent implementations that successfully
interoperate. That would also show greater WG interest than just a single
individual or organization.
Open source code is a plus, but shouldn't be a requirement, as such a
requirement might discourage some vendors from implementing.
Thanks,
Andy

Title : A Fast-Track way to Proposed Standard with
Running Code
Author(s) : Stephen Farrell
Filename : draft-farrell-ft-01.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2012-12-03
Abstract:
This memo proposes an optional fast-track way to get from a working
group document to IESG review that can be used for cases when a
working group chair believes that there is running code that
implements a working group Internet-Draft. The basic idea is to do
all of working group last call, IETF last call and area director
review during the same two week period, and to impose a higher
barrier for comments that might block progress. The motivation is to
have the IETF process have a built-in reward for running code,
consistent with the IETF's overall philosophy of running code and
rough consensus. This version is solely proposed by the author (and
not the IESG) to attempt to ascertain if there is enough interest in
this to warrant trying out the idea as an RFC 3933 process
experiment.
