Re: [rsvp-dir] RSVP Directorate Reviews

[Lou Berger <[e-mail]>]

Gory,
	Much thanks for the response.  Was your response covering rtg-dir
work/input or WG work/input?  Note my question related to the latter.

Much thanks,
Lou

As you know, the directorate has not to date produced many reviews of the drafts, and the ADs really would like to see more reviews, and promises to review mature drafts, in order to feel confident that the drafts are worth the time and attention of the WG. So, first of all, I'd like to respectfully ask the Directorate members to step up and commit to reviewing these drafts. The 2 drafts that need attention right now are:
