This DISCUSS is just to ensure the draft is not unintentionally approved, as we decided to make it an ION.

If it becomes a BCP, [draft-ietf-proto-wgchair-doc-shepherding] becomes a DOWNREF. From how it's cited, the reference can probably be changed to informative.

I think that this document should probably be an ION.  If it is going
to be an informational RFC, we need to clearly state in the
introduction and abstract that this is a snapshot of the IESG's
thinking at this point in time captured to go with the other related
documents and that it may be changed without publication of a new RFC.

In Section 4, why isn't BCPs discussed as a track being AD sponsored?

Appendix B. Reference in the note to this document should be added.

  Section 2 references RFC 2119.  However, these terms are not used.

Re-reading this, I found this part sounded strange:

When considering the choice between a sponsored document and an RFC
   Editor submission, the RFC 3932 rules play a role [RFC3932].  If it
   is likely that the document would generate a 3 (harmful to IETF
   work), 4 (violates IETF procedures) or 5 (extension requires IETF
   review) response based on RFC 3932 it is not appropriate for an
   independent submission.  Sometimes such documents are suitable
   candidates for being sponsored, however. 

That almost looks like an AD might sponsor something which is harmful
to the IETF's work or violates IETF procedures.    Suggested replacement

   require IETF review, as they extend IETF protocols and they may not go
   through the RFC Editor's independent submissions track (see response 5
   of RFC3932).
