I think it would be interesting to understand how much time an individual IESG member has to dedicate to appeals. I know I've dedicated a lot of time to appeals, but I find that's because I chose to do so because I thought it was important. I've certainly dedicated much less time to more recent appeals. I wonder if we could find out how much time IESG members spend on appeals and how much they could cut back if they chose to dedicate less time to appeals? _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
