As I understand it one the main reasons for the different cutoff for -00
was that it takes some time to get WG -00 documents ok'ed by the co-chairs.

A straw-man to run by the secretariat: if we require that the WG chairs
in advance post a list of pre-approved WG -00 document names (requires
exact match) to internet-drafts@ietf.org, could they apply the later cutoff 
date for those documents.
