I think you may be mishearing what I'm proposing for a timeline.

I'm proposing seven days of collecting entirely informal comments; that
can be extended if there are still significant open issues.  Then,
starting a formal process.  Assuming no extensions, that means two weeks
of discussion and amendments, followed by two weeks of vote.

The secretary will send mail to d-d-a when the formal discussion period
starts.  I don't plan to send mail to d-d-a before that, but if someone
feels this needs more exposure on d-d-a now then by all means send a
quick note.

I don't have the power to call for a vote in 7 days, and agree with you
that doing so even if I could would be a bad idea.
