Concern over delays was widely held.  I started noticing that WG Chairs 
were doing an excellent job of making sure that everyone got to 
participate, but were quite poor at pressing for forward progress.

That was why I started the WG Chair Training sessions. Ostensibly it was 
to introduce new chairs to the formal IETF processes.

While it did do that, it's real agenda was to sell the need to balance 
between ensuring fair opportunities to air views, with making forward 
progress.

At the time, I thought it helpful.
