I gather this is one of those "everybody knows" problems, where "everybody knows" that it takes what's perceived as too long to get documents through the post-wglc/pre-publication process. I can see some value in parallelizing some processes. I'd really like to see AD review happen in parallel with working group last call but I'm not sure that's possible given the already considerable area direct workload. There's probably some sort of sympathetic vibe running between this document and recent discussion of nearly-cooked work being brought to the IETF for standardization. I think some sort of variation on what Stephen's proposing is probably reasonable. If somebody hasn't already documented how long it takes to get through the various steps once a document is into wglc, it would be worthwhile to start taking notes. Melinda
