I would be willing to work with you on finding better
ways to approach this. We generally respond on a timely
manner (I think) on the requests that come to us
for an official RFC 3932 decision. But given the two week
review deadlines, events in the WGs, etc. I know I at
least sometimes miss other mails and requests.

I wonder if John's goal would be met by the RFC Editor
deciding what order it runs the different steps in. For
instance, if the RFC Editor suspects that a collision
is very likely, sending the draft for RFC 3932 at that
time would seem more useful than spend half a year
in ISR process and only then finding out that, say,
IANA rules prevent publication.
