the ietf is more financially liable if it 'fesses up to the growing
reality and cancels.  but it takes ietf management longer to do that.
first the decision has to be out-sourced.  then it has to be micro-
managed.  this is not easy.

i had not realized that ieee 801 is more lightweight.  it does not even
have admin help analogous to the ietf secretariat.
