Anyway, the total numbers are small but to the extent that we
no longer seem to be able to undertake new work without a "problem

delays.
My understanding, possibly incorrect, is that the process delay is intentional.
A brief look at the RFC series and the internet drafts will tell you that we
often start a project with a solution looking for a problem. Our response has
been to ask for a problem statement draft, and then charter a working group
that is not authorized to create a solution without a charter change. I don’t
know how that doesn’t make the time interval from “I’d like to work on
something” to “solution delivered to IESG” longer.
We also have created a work ethic in which dithering is accepted.
