I'm not sure if this is directed at me -- I'm holding a DISCUSS
position with some questions / clarifications, but I'm perfectly fine
to be told for any or all of them that these are outside the scope of
what the WG is chartered for / doing with this -bis.


> The authors and the WG purposefully did not make any other changes to the base documents, so making other changes as a result of IESG evaluation does not seem appropriate. I think the appropriate thing to do would be for ADs who want to see that happen to start a thread about re-chartering on the iasa20 list. (Note: this is not my preference since I suspect it will delay the minimal changes related to IASA 2.0 from being published for a long time, but if that’s what the community wants I’ll support it.)

Fair 'nuff -- but (for me at least) I don't think that my questions /
requests for clarification count as substantive changes. If others do,
I'm perfectly fine to clear them, etc.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
