This was discussed briefly on IAB/IESG lists...

My opinion plus a few others:  Pragmatically, it can't actually become 
active until the next Nomcom.  Part of the problem is there are a number of 
race conditions that could occur depending on when the document was 
actually approved.  If it had been approved before this nomcom had been 
empaneled then...
