Actually, if people do find that sufficiently enlightening or find it generates more questions, it'd be good to let the IESG know eithr way, in case we miss stuff in crafting a response (or to save us confusing matters more by trying to clarify by adding words:-). When I scanned the history, I think it did more or less cover what I recall of the discussions (though that's easier for me of course since I was part of 'em). The only missing bit of info is that the IESG and ISE have arranged to have a chat about all of our expectations for "returning items and 5742 review." We've had a couple of those recently, (one that was easy-peasy and then this one:-), and people were a bit confused about the right way to handle stuff. That chat is planned to happen @ IETF95.
