>    I wouldn't think that adding people would help much since a lot of the
    work isn't divisible.  ADs traditionally read all of the drafts, not
    just the ones in their area.

Does every AD read all the drafts?  I don't know.  But changing the process to say one AD from each area would reduce the load.

    RFCs.

That is certainly *A* way, but not *THE* way.
