[WEG] Signal to noise ratio. I (and I assume others) use the IETF's RSS feed to see all new drafts when they are posted. This is in order to have a fighting chance to see drafts I might care about that happen in WGs that I am not an active participant in, both to help me see if there are other WG lists I need to subscribe to or if there are meetings I should attend as a "tourist", or direct feedback to the authors prior to IETF LC. New drafts posted for WGs that aren't meeting (and while I'm at it, throwaway placeholder -00 drafts with no content) help contribute to the crush of drafts to sift through, because it's not readily apparent based on the RSS summary or the draft itself whether the WG is meeting. Add me as one more +1 in support of a quiet period to give me a chance to catch up on draft review before the meeting. > It was silly I had to rush to post a draft on Monday for a WG that's not > meeting. > [WEG] Yes it was silly you had to rush, because if the WG isn't meeting, there's no reason why you couldn't have simply waited until after the moratorium elapsed, or posted it well prior to the inevitable rush of work that precedes every meeting. Though alternatively it should be possible to have the system continue accepting submissions and only make them public at the expiration of the posting moratorium.
