Subject: Possible extra "oral tradition" for draft-ietf-nomcom-rfc2727bis-01.txt


In my experience, the confirming bodies don't attempt to second-guess
the NomCom when it takes a controversial decision, but they
really want to know why that decision was taken, and whether the
NomCom consulted everybody they needed to. Rather than adding yet more 
formal requirements, how about an extra "oral tradition" in the Appendix?

5. Most NomComs will have to make one or two very difficult or
   controversial decisions, and these are likely to lead to debate
   within the relevant confirming body. Although not a formal
   requirement, a NomCom is well advised to inform the confirming
   body of why and how they made the choice that they did in such cases,
   rather than waiting until the confirming body comes back with
   questions.
