Re: [tao-discuss] New version of the "Tao of the IETF" published

[Brian E Carpenter <[e-mail]>]

Also, I'm not aware that the IESG in any way reviews IAB stream RFCs or the new Editorial scheme RFCs (although of course IESG members may do so as individuals).

A broader point: I hope that minor edits like this can be processed very rapidly.

This version significantly benefited from suggestions and contributions by the community, most notably from Rich Salz, for which I as editor am very thankful. This publication would also not have been possible without the support of Greg Wood and the review of the IESG. The IESG requested for future iterations to have smaller changes, so I intend to increase the publication pace. However, this also depends on the discussion about the future of the Tao.
