I happen to work in WGs where the I-D deadline works really well.
It may not work well in your WG, but complain to your WG management,
please.
This is an important point, but I come to a different conclusion: If the
two week deadline works for some WGs and not for others, this argues for
WGs to be able to control whether or not to impose the deadline and for
it *not* to be an IETF-wide requirement. Indeed, some WGs might operate
in a way that a different deadline (longer or shorter) makes sense.
Please don’t try to “fix” (break) what isn’t broken.
For some WGs, it is broken. So let's have a discussion on what the
assorted needs are and only after that decide what rules and tools (if
any) are needed.
