Julian says... > My experience is that longer last call periods usually do not generate more > review, but just later review. Indeed. I find that almost all the time, last call reviews and comments come in either in the first few days of the last call, or in the last few days (or, unfortunately, a day or two after it's over). It's uncommon for reviews to flow in throughout the period, and four-week last calls mostly wind up with two weeks of quiet in the middle. > That being said, the timing indeed isn't optimal.

And that is the reason we did the last call the way we did, accepting that the suboptimal timing would give way to better use of time at the meeting. Clearly, important comments won't be ignored because they're late. But, everyone, please do your best to get your comments in by the IETF meeting, so we can discuss them in the httpbis sessions. Barry
