It will also be a more open process. Today, in my opinion, having to negotiate with each possible sponsor in secret, is a broken concept, and against our openness.
I'm a lot more concerned about openness in IETF protocol development. some kinds of negotiations really do need to be done in secret.
IMHO, having protocol engineers who know next to nothing about meeting logistics try to dictate such terms is a broken concept.
