So here's my question:
Does the community want us to push back on those situations?  Does the
community believe that the real IETF work is done on the mailing
lists, and not in the face-to-face meetings, to the extent that the
community would want the IESG to refuse to publish documents whose
process went as I've described above, on the basis that IETF process
was not properly followed?
In general, yes please, with room for special cases as John suggested.

At the same time I would like this part of RFC 2418 to be applied:

"  All working group sessions (including those held outside of the IETF
    meetings) shall be reported by making minutes available.  These
    minutes should include the agenda for the session, an account of the
    discussion including any decisions made, and a list of attendees."

The list of attendees is now taken care of by the scanned blue sheets,
but the barely literate "he said, she said" minutes from most WGs
are pretty much useless. For people attempting to participate only
via the mailing list this is a problem.

Let's have more minutes like these:

Brian - does this include conversations between principals of a WG effort who are conversing about genesis in that WG outside of the IETF mailing list - i.e. what happens to conversations inside a development team ? How is that genesis and creative power harnessed for inclusion into the IETF process?
