Ah so I guess this one is informational so it could proceed without the waiting 
for all the refs, but I do think we can ask the RFC editor to hold it for at 
least the normative refs.  When progressing a block of drafts, there’s always a 
bunch of tradeoffs to deal with: 1) Will the IESG be upset by having to read a 
couple of hundred pages, 2) What’s the right order of the drafts to hit the 
IESG agenda, 3) Will we need to change something in the overview draft, etc.  
I’ve come to think that when the WG thinks a draft is done we should push it 
upstream and let them deal with it in the order that it comes.  We can let the 
IESG place discusses that hold the draft before it gets to the RFC editor based 
on whatever criteria they feel is appropriate, or the RFC editor can hold it 
because of their processes - basically we should get things off our plate ASAP 
so that we can focus on other things.  Obviously YMMV.
