I can think of an example where a minor clarification was made in
AUTH 48. The appropriate AD confirmed the
change but it still proved to be very controversial. (For the life
of me, I have *never* understood why. I have read that
sentence a thousand times, and I still don't see the problem. Not
that it matters here, of course.) I don't know
if an appeal for AUTH 48 changes has ever been filed, but I could
certainly see it happening.
There is no way to ensure that documents aren't published until *all*
the appeals timers expire. Given that, let's
encourage the RFC Editor to publish when ready, and we can
concentrate on establishing a process that works
when the appeal concerns a published document.

What happens if the appeal is claiming that changes made in Auth 48
should have been reviewed by the working group and go against WG
consensus? Given some of the changes I have seen between IESG
approval and published RFC, this seems like a reasonable plausible
scenario.

John:
RFC 2026 gives two months to appeal any decision. IESG approval of a
document publication is one such decision. RFC 2026, section
6.5.4 says:
All appeals must be initiated within two months of the public
knowledge of the action or decision to be challenged.
So, the two month timer begins when the approval announcement is
sent.
