Not exactly. Like the text said: that was only if the AC determined
there was insufficient public support for the proposal as written by
the author. I don't recall many cases where two versions went to last
call as a result. There were some arguments when the AC abandoned
proposals for lack of clear support.

IRPEP. It wasn't called the PDP until 2009 when the AC was put firmly
in charge of writing the policy proposals, not just shepherding them
along.

BTW, IRPEP is typoed in that URL.
