So, in any case, I believe the draft is well reviewed when it lands to IANA. I don't understand why IANA needs to change their process to bring more experts to review the draft. It gives me the impression that the I-D process does not suffer enough review and IANA can solve that problem.

IANA are not meant to solve the problem, but to detect a _potential_ issue. The experts will then have to decide whether this is a problem or not.

As expressed earlier, we had a case when an Enumservice I-D (STD) was fine when it went into IESG processing, but it was heavily broken when it arrived at IANA and was still broken when it arrived to AUTH48 (where it was accidentally detected).
[Michelle / Alice, you remember this pain, don't you...?]

Other Enumservices got published as STD (!) in a buggy state (e.g. RFC3762).

[IMHO wherever people are working, mistakes might happen (everywhere and all the time); the more bodies involved, the higher the likelihood for mistakes. The question here is, whether mistakes get detected before it is too late.]

cheers,
