However, it is *not* hard to measure overall trends in performance, and to break these trends down between areas and types of documents. My understanding is that the Simcoe dataset continues beyond 2001, and that with some relatively modest effort, a detailed analysis could be produced quantifying how the IETF has performed. This would give us a window into what the actual results have been. |
