I also agree that an AD should be able to get an I-D posted after the
cut-off date if it is "the right thing."
Russ,
I'm missing some bit of logic that I hope you can clarify:
1. The cut-off was put into place due to workload on the
Secretariat. The automated I-D has eliminated that bottleneck problem.
2. Working groups manage their own load. The Secretariat is not a
factor nor is the cognizant AD for any other on-going working group work.
So I'm not understanding why there is still a need for a cut-off and for
the ability to have an AD do "the right thing".
It would seem that the right thing is to remove the cutoff and let each
working group decide on what drafts will be worked on.
What am I missing, that explains retaining the cut-off?
