Hi Andrew

I think if the IETF has strong objections with engineering reasons, then it
is already a NO. That document should not even get to IESG. We only need
IESG decision (saying yes or no) when we all in IETF agree with consensus.
All IETF WGs should adapt/amend their document to total IETF consensus
(that is WGs interaction).
