Sorry, but I do not think the last bullet is correct. To the contrary, (quoting from rfc3710): The AD, with the advice of the IESG, is also responsible for selecting chairs for the working group which the AD thinks will be up to the task. Nowhere it mentioned that the WG "gets to pick at least some of its own chairs". Yakov. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
