Not only "can be moved or taken off", telechat agendas, but it's quite 
common in my experience (as IESG scribe for several years). The ADs are 
trying to advance documents that are sent forward for publication without 
procedural delays, but they really do pull stuff that's not ready, and they 
can pull it at any time. I can't remember that happening AFTER a telechat 
begins, but I can remembering it happening during agenda-bashing at the 
beginning of a number of telechats.

So, please continue spirited technical discussion! As we used to say in the 
Working Group Chairs training session, no technical concern is ever "too 
late to be considered".

I hope this is helpful,
