It's possible that "publishing an RFC" is a poor metric for meaningful work accomplished, because not all RFCs are of equal utility or importance even though they have more-or-less equal overhead in publication. Even if less-good I-Ds don't bog down IESG (maybe IESG just throws up its hands and gives up trying to fix things that aren't fixable?), they might bog down the working groups trying to produce them. People work harder when they believe their work is meaningful and/or get feedback from others, and discussions are more productive when there are enough interested parties to actively participate in them. > My theory for the possible increased mail traffic is that folks are doing more business between meetings, and the increased use of GitHub which increases volume because of increased participation. > > Always good to have real numbers. It's good to have real numbers - you can get some useful insights from them sometimes - as long as you don't consider them more meaningful than they are. Keith
