If you want to take on "small" things, then just say something like: "GENDISPATCH can also do small efforts, as determined by the IESG" we don't need to anticipate everything, or litigate everything twice in charter than then again. ==== I prefer to keep GENDISPATCH with the other dispatch work. I think it's MORE IMPORTANT than the other dispatch work that it be conflict-free.
Yes. One of the frustrations about working on IETF process issues is that most of the people affected by them don't help fix them. We need many more participants to take an interest in process work, and a specific advantage of having GENDISPATCH as part of a plenary dispatch session is that more people will be in the room. It is *not* a waste of their time. Brian
