            Could you say more about that? It sounds like something
              needs to be fixed.
          
        
    Yes, the Tao needs a dust off.[1]  See Section 2.2.2 of that
    document.  There are probably other areas that need work. 
    Similarly, "Bringing New Work into the IETF"[2] needs a dust off*
    (see slides 6 and 7).   I will also add that these documents are not
    exactly prominent, either on our current web site or on
    beta.ietf.org.  Might I suggest that "Getting Involved" be just a
    bit more prominently featured?

    * (Both of these works were fine documents and remain mostly fine,
    and it was awfully generous of those who put them together to have
    done so).
