a fellow operator reading this list sent email this morning saying
i suspect that if you want to do ietf full-time - you're probably

i suspect that one reason we are so enamoured of open source is it is
running code. implementation is where the rubber meets the road. i-ds
are where the rubber meets the sky. success is when there is both i-d
and implementation. good i-ds are when implementors are authors.
