As the wg chair of a WG which has never met at an IETF, and thus the two week
freeze serves no purpose for this *WG*, I am in favour of the two week
freeze.  Why? Because many of us participate in more than one WG.
Given that the queue now (since a few years) opens on Saturday morning rather
than Monday morning, it provides a useful and reasonable deadline which
authors can work with.  (I'm agnostic about an earlier deadline for -00)

In one or two cases, the freeze has been annoying to a document
which was at the IESG, but the AD override worked fine for that, and the AD
was in fact completely in the loop.
