The IESG can speak for themselves, but my sense is that there is some feeling that we aren't ready for anything as formal and permanent-looking as a BCP. As Dave points out, that hypothesis might be either true or false, but, if one believes it to be true, then the question is what to do next/instead... especially given the additional hypothesis that we have a problem and that something needs to be done sooner rather than later. What I'm feeling for is a model on which, if the IESG considers it appropriate and is willing to explain why, we can get something soon, with wide and careful community review at an appropriate time, so the choice isn't "BCP or nothin" or "nothing any time soon". john
