(struct IETF *) We can always provide guidance.  But processes cannot rely
on applicants (tacit or not) to either be aware of the guidance or, more
significantly, to heed it.  Prepare for the best, expect the worst.  (Or
that "conservative, liberal" bon mot.)  I certainly don't think it is
"right" to *expect* that everyone will heed the guidance, so we need to
build the process as if we didn't give the guidance in the first place.

Yes.  I'm not satisfied with the process in RFC 6761.
