Some of those posts made relevant points, and came from people who are responsible for parts of the Internet. If indeed the IETF blew them off, which I sincerely hope is not what will happen to that draft (the status tracker hasn't changed status since before then), I think the IETF will lose credibility in the wider community. I'd prefer an IETF that serves the larger community over one that caters only to the few frequent contributors. /Simon _______________________________________________ IETF mailing list IETF@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
