Yep, that is how it is going to be. And any argument that sounds like "But on IRC <somebody> has said XYZ" will be ignored until that somebody posts his/her opinion on the mailing list. I am not going to keep IRC logs and search through them when somebody refers to an IRC discussion. In this working group *individuals* discuss address policy. Statements on behalf of groups, organisations, companies or some other person on IRC are not taken into account in policy discussions. Only statements made by real people themselves are taken into account :) > Also I'd like to echo the sentiment that it's yet another communications > channel that I'd need to keep track of - I don't know where any of you finds > the time to do so but I certainly don't have it. Yep. I have trouble enough as it is judging consensus based on mailing list data. Adding more sources of data can make my work as working group chair close to impossible. Cheers! Sander
