No, I don't think it's about the money.
Brian is saying that if we look at the RPC/RFC-series as a (probably
criticially constrained resource - CCR) step in a process, then the largest
backlog of work comes from the IETF series. That means that processes
and people are probably optimized for the IETF series.
The other series, because they are smaller get less specialization, and less
accomodation in the process.
