> It hasn't been mentioned here that having a single source to look at for all the current work is very valuable for someone getting up to speed and those that don't want to miss something. this is just an indirection problem of course and with enough tooling you can have both (separate repos and an automated wg wide dashboard)- but I haven't seen that done.. 

For me, tools.ietf.org/wg/core has been a very useful dashboard.

It would be nice if we could rid this of replaced drafts.

It would also be nice if the chairs could annotate drafts with their github existence.
