Bob, > > Metrics? Examples? Comparisons with experience with other SDOs? Ran brought up the LISP working group as a positive example of using EXPERIMENTAL, so let's look at it. To get even close to being finished, the group has had to handle 113 issues, some 59 of which were opened by one person who applied the PS standard to opening an issue (or higher). I certainly have seen many MANY PS docs go through with FAR fewer issues. As far as I'm concerned, I wouldn't advise someone who wanted to get to PS to start with Experimental. And quite frankly, most of the work done in the IETF is far FROM experimental, but coded and sold.
