The IAB does not do architecture oversight of documents intended to 
be "standards".  I just noticed that an IAB member is not advocating 
for a position which the IAB took.  Anyway, that is not what you 
asked about.  Please see below.

The Area Directors responsible for ensuring that the working groups 
falling within their Area produced architecturally consistent 
output.  My guess is that it happens when the Area Director(s) is an 
expert on the working group topic.  It can be controversial if an 
Area Director is too insistent about architectural purity.
