    <p>Agree with Noah on that.</p>
    <p>Simply abandon the proposal and let form a WG member to <b>restart</b>
      it and follow the due process, not just he/she as an author to get
      out of the proposal.<br>
      And still in such situation if someone else, even without any
      relationship with the previous author (now Co-Chair) replays the
      exactly same version the now Co-Chair would still biased to decide
      about it.<br>
      That's one of the reasons I have always said that Co-Chairs should
      never comment on any proposal merit, even using the "hat off"
      thing to put up their personal views while their term lasts.<br>
