The LC review will be very weak in terms of quality if we often do this kind of calls (it seems not often done), but I think if reviewers that want to review these drafts, send comments saying we need more time for such LC, there is always the AD responsibility to make more time available if there were people to do the job. Delaying I-Ds also is not a good process quality while we see no much volunteering reviews from the community (less than 5 reviews per I-D). So do you mean you will want to review or you mean that others MAY want to review but they will leave it, so this LC is attacking.

I see that we have been granted a fortnight to review eight,

Seems like a DoS attack to me.
