Milton,

I would suggest that NCSG not only give some members "the pen" to work 
on documents, but assign "a gavel" to one member who can first warn of 
deadlines, and then pound the gavel and say "document closed and sent".
Many of the nuances that are important don't really get carved in stone 
when documents are tabled and get struggled with in the ongoing 
processes. It is better to submit a more-or-less consensus document with 
a few warts to be struggled over later, than to submit no document at all.
