Since your document was 2016, I was likely the AD. Yes, the meetings had challenges at times, but we worked through it and things got done.
Measuring productivity through the number of documents published is not a good habit for us to get into;
The number of documents published was in response to a comment that "nothing would get done" at the OAuth WG. Which is clearly not true.
it gives incentive to all of the wrong kinds of behaviours.
Can you elaborate on these wrong behaviours?
