I've read through this thread carefully enough to say that if a BOF
description in this space showed up in
https://trac.tools.ietf.org/bof/trac/wiki, I'd most likely encourage the
IESG to approve it.

I'm not ready to convince myself that this is a TSV BOF and I should
sponsor it, but we do have 13 ADs who aren't TSV ADs ...

Do the right thing.
