Mukesh,

I'm not too concerned at this point since there are many RFCs and active
drafts with more than 5 authors. If the ADs complain vehemently when it
gets to AD
review phase then I'll opt out.

I don't think that length is the only metric by which we should judge
OSPF WG
documents. Note that the both the "Declaration of Independence" and
"Magna Carta"
are only a few pages (depending on you formatting) :^). Also, we did go
through a lot of
iterations with input from all the listed authors.

Thanks,
Acee
