Where is the "running code" when it come to (eg) denying IXPs the right to have
provider-independent IPv6 addresses (as was the case for some
considerable time).
Leo and Nick addressed this, and I agree with their assessment of the events at
the time.
Which differs from the perception of those running IXPs.
[Square bracket issues]
Maybe I've been unlucky in the meetings I've attended, but I've seen this
happen several times, resulting in the discussions collapsing, not
leaving me with much faith in that process.
Perhaps that's because you have observer-bias towards discussions in
subgroups rather than the plenary.
I've been to enough meetings where the plenary *must* craft a
deliverable (which is I think where we started vis-vis the IGF) to know
that by the end of the meeting all the square brackets *must* have been
removed. Even if an arguably dysfunctional sub-group less familiar with
the process couldn't manage it earlier in the process.
