IF, I only say if, this is the case then this is very wrong, and the
chair collective should know their place and rethink if it is right to
push it down to each WG.


However, a question : did this ad-hoc panel have community backing, or
was it some sort of internal WG-chairs working group? I can't remember
to see it anywhere on any list but I would have overlooked it.


But, if this ad-hoc panel had community backing and WG-chairs
collective chose to go their own way....
