I just posted the third version of the draft at:

I would like to change "IESG" to "IETF" in five places:
Section 1:
"the IESG has evolved its review processes"
Section 2:
"IESG Reveiew of Proposed Standards"
"the IESG strengthened its review"
"last chance for the IESG to ensure the quality"
"cross-area technical review performed by the IESG"
The IETF as a whole, through directorate reviews, area reviews, doctor
reviews, *and* IESG reviews, has evolved, strengthened, ensured, etc.,
its reviews.
Saying "the IESG" in these places implies precedent setting that I think
would be bad. If the IETF capitulated to the IESG changing the rules on
its own in the past, so be it, but I think it would be bad to indicate
in a BCP that we think it's OK for the IESG to do so unilaterally.
