Correct, Carl. The issue is oversight -- who leads the committees that review the financial statements and the IAD performance. Allowing the IAD to lead the review of his/her own performance does not make sense.
And I don't think anyone expected that. As I said before - IAOC has to make committees that do review; IAD should make committees that perform actions.
And I'd also argue that while it is the IAD's job to come up with the budget, that does not happen in a vaccuum -- the ISOC, IAOC and IETF community need to provide input into the service level that is expected, and those changes need to be explicit. That was, I think, Bob Kahn's point at the plenary.
Agreed - and I do think the "vacuum" is a red herring (or bad drafting). Again, nobody wants that.
Rather than focussing on timelines (which after all, may change), I'd like to see more discussion of the expected working relationship. I don't think we want the "throw it over the wall" process that seems to be implied.
