I don't have a particular opinion if the meeting should be cancelled. However, I noticed that on Friday, the responsible AD said that it was OK to have the meeting despite the small procedural error in organizing it: the meeting was announced on the WG list, but not on the iesg-list. On Monday, the meeting is cancelled. That doesn't look very nice. In the future, I suggest that the IESG makes a decision, then sticks to it, even if an individual AD has approved something he really shouldn't.
