 the absence of early reviews doesn't imply that there are no cross-area
 issues.)


This provision concerns me a great deal -- there's no load-leveling or load-limiting. When I'm asked to review documents as part of my role in the security directorate, I know that the ADs are spreading the load.
Here, any individual WG chair is unaware of what his or her colleagues are doing.

Right. For Gen-ART, we have a human dispatcher who performs loose load balancing. Do you think we will need a human (or robotic) dispatcher for this?
