We're here because of the extremely specialized nature of transport. PhDs who specialize in it have gotten it wrong. One such person drove Van Jacobson into the field, as I recall. There are very few people who get it right. And yet it's so close to the waist of the hour glass that it's critical to get right. Security has a lot of visibility and so it will never have this very same problem. > > > IESG-level review of a document really is a skill that can be > learned.

I'm not on the NOMCOM but I know it is not every area we are having this problem, it's transport. Eliot
