I thought we sent something around about that.   ADs and WG chairs are encouraged to ask for directorate reviews for certain directorates (possibly all directorates, I can't remember) prior to working group last call.   This is in the form of an experiment, not a new policy; we'll see how it goes.
[MB]  Okay. I remember this one, but I thought that was more around improving quality than reducing workload.  [ /MB] 

We've done a number of other things in the same vein—e.g., document shepherds are now being invited onto telechats, so that they can do the work of tracking action items for the authors rather than the AD doing it.
[MB] I'm assuming this is on a case by case basis as I've not been invited to any telechats.  And, I'm not aware that the shepherds of my own documents have been on telechats.  For my recent docs, I've been dealing directly with the issues via email and the not shepherd or ADs.   Certainly, the past, I worked more closely with the AD on issues from the telechat, but I had thought that was more working style than intentional.[/MB] 

I think there were other items on the list, but I don't remember them off the top of my head.   The point is, if anybody thinks the IESG is a deer in the headlights on this issue, that's not the case—we are actively trying to do things to ameliorate the situation.
