For what it is worth, I agree with what Stephen says below: > I don't think so. There are just huge differences in how different > WGs impinge on AD workload.

We need that flexibility to tune our operations to the current topics today and in the future. Also, there’s another question about what the proper workload is for an AD, and a third question about ways in which we can move more of the IESG work to WGs. Those are important questions, too, but we still need the flexibility to address topics as they grow and shrink. Jari
