It would be nice to have something analogous to the I-D tracker

The parking area isn't really meant to be an analysis of the RFC Editor's
queue, just a statement about what the IETF has approved.
Exactly. "It's in the parking area" is our equivalent of "the check's
in the mail." Seriously, we can point enquiries about the status of
a draft to there.
However, much
of the followup has been with similar requests. I've been downloading
snapshots of the RFC Editor's queue web page for a couple of years now;
http://rtg.ietf.org/~fenner/iesg/analyze-rfcq.txt is updated daily and has
the state changes that I've observed. It also breaks the RFC Editor's
REF state into two seperate states - REF-INT, where all of the REF
documents are also in the queue, and REF-EXT, where one or more is not.
Only REF-EXT is a blocking state.
I'd add that the Tools team, with the IAD, are looking at better ways to
present these data, so that we can have at-a-glance status indicators.
