I would like to change "IESG" to "IETF" in five places:

Section 1:

"the IESG has evolved its review processes"

Section 2:

"IESG Reveiew of Proposed Standards"
"the IESG strengthened its review"
"last chance for the IESG to ensure the quality"
"cross-area technical review performed by the IESG"

The IETF as a whole, through directorate reviews, area reviews, doctor 
reviews, *and* IESG reviews, has evolved, strengthened, ensured, etc., 
its reviews.

Saying "the IESG" in these places implies precedent setting that I think 
would be bad. If the IETF capitulated to the IESG changing the rules on 
its own in the past, so be it, but I think it would be bad to indicate 
in a BCP that we think it's OK for the IESG to do so unilaterally.
