Actually the time for asking these questions is long before IETF-wide Last
Call. We need widespread review of proposals for standards-track documents
long before a WG thinks it's finished with those documents. It's a gaping
hole in our process.
Hear, hear.
Fix that problem, and most of the conflicts between IESG and WGs that
surround DISCUSS votes will go away.
Well, you might be a little optimistic here, but I agree in theory.
