we need to allow IESG to use some discretion here.
what *kind* of discretion?
should we allow the IESG the discretion to decide what they like or
don't like and then allow them the authority to make the decision based on that?
or, should we allow the IESG the discretion to note potential issues and
then allow them the authority to raise seek review and consensus from the IETF?
and, of course, there are more alternatives to consider "allowing", but these
two highlight the underlying question here.
I could have sworn that Dave Clark preceded the "rough consensus" reference
with a reference about our not assigning decision-making authority to a
delegate. He named kings and presidents.
So it is not ok to have a king or a president, but it *is* ok to have an
oligarchy?
