Speaking as the NSFnet oversight person who initiated the overthrow of
the IAB because of their inability to approve RFCs and WG creation in a
timely manner (6 months).

And as a member of both the POISED and POISSON WGs that wrote the
IETF process.

There is a reason that 6 months is written into our standards process --
that is the minimal time for complete delivery of an RFC changing the
status of a draft, to Proposed and then to (now) Full Standard.  It's
enough time for review.  We said so fairly clearly.

There is a reason that we picked 24 months for failure to mature.

When it comes to Last Call, Spencer is just a member of the WG.  His
comments are due at the same time as everybody else.

Shepharding is just prompting the IESG to get the items on their
agenda.  It shouldn't take more than one person....
