Very good point! We all have suggestions for changes and end up 
talking about them without talking specifically about what it is we 
think we're fixing.

When I said earlier that a topic I'm concerned with is "Scope of work 
that IETF takes on", I should have said "the IESG is clearly 
overloaded with work, what can we do to reduce their load so they can 
focus on the work of most importance to the whole IETF".
