Eliot - the problem quite simply is that the IESG needs to be disbanded. It serves no other purpose than to complicate the creation and acceptable vetting models for Internet Standards and as such really needs to be a thing of the past - The standards process is easily updated to remove the IESG from the process and since they are not chartered to protect the Internet their existence at all is unwarranted overhead and control of political issues within the Internet as a whole and as such totally inappropriate anymore.
