Hi,

your request with IANA for the option allocation has been open for a while, agreed.

The ID that IANA asked for before forwarding the request to the IESG was posted by you on March 1. See http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-simpson-tcpct/#history

The Independent Stream Editor has sent it to the IESG for the RFC5742 Section 3 review on March 26, i.e., during the IETF meeting in Anaheim.

Today is April 1.

The ID is slated for discussion on the very next IESG telechat on April 8.

I fail to see how we're slow. In fact, this is the most aggressive possible schedule.
