ISTR a case of a WG that got replaced its chair by the IESG, and told to do its work differently, two or three times - and *every* time, the new chair stopped posting to the list after a short time. (The last time, I think he came back after a significant timeout.) That's a recipe for exhaustion if ever I saw one. I might even call it active sabotage.
