The first is to be the arbiter of community consensus. The second is to be a judge on the quality of the work before them, as to whether it is ready to move forward. The threat of the IESG saying, "jeez what a {dumb|complex|...} approach" separates us from other standards organizations (or at least it did). The most famous example of all of this is still the ETHERNET-MIB WG where they were upset that Jon Postel reset a counter size in the final copy of the MIB to match the IEEE specification, and those folks were rip roaring upset that he did so. I don't want the IESG to author the docs like Jon did but I do want them to stand in the way of dumb ideas. In this case they should be there to apply our *evolving* standards. To hogtie those folk to me just begs for others to attempt to make use of those knots to get their dumb standards. Shouldn't the response to John's appeal demonstrate the balance between their two roles?
