I presume Brian wants to call our attention to:
]
] (3.e) The Document Shepherd then communicates the DISCUSS and
] COMMENT items to the document editors and the working group,
] alerting them of any changes to the document that have
] accumulated during IESG processing, such as "Notes to the RFC
] Editor." If any changes will be substantive, the Document
] Shepherd, in consultation with the Responsible Area Director,
] as during other stages, MUST seek working group consensus.
("then" is perhaps a bit out of context: see the named document.)
Note the steps 3.[abcd] which precede it.
I sense a perception that not all of this is happening. IMHO, we
need to avoid the "quick fix" of claiming an automated posting to the
mailing-list can substitute for these steps. Nonetheless, it might be
that an automated notification that a DISCUSS remains outstanding
some number of days after the telechat could help bring immediacy to
the process...
