In the abstract, I like the idea of getting RPC reviews done early. However
1) It is not at all clear that it falls within the RSWG / RSAB / RPC purview to change the IETF processing sequence.
2) It seems that we would need more staff. Even if we assumed that the early review saved later work, I doubt it saves all the later work. And the time frame the RPC currently aims to meet for reviews is longer than we would want for something like a last-call / IESG processing review (which while it often takes longer, we aim for 4 - 6 weeks.)
3) This would also seem to need changes to the RPC work flow, since what the RPC reviews is not the I-D that we work with during development.
I am not sure how to reconcile these parameters. Yours, Joel -- rswg mailing list -- rswg@rfc-editor.org To unsubscribe send an email to rswg-le...@rfc-editor.org
