Which is why I suggest that we should support the Trustees' proposed short term fix, to allow normal work to continue +/- cutting and pasting some boilerplate. We do have a glitch in 5378 to mend, but let's get that off the critical path.
I can't begin to guess at the logic that uses Larry's somewhat bizarre assertion as a basis for trying to press approval of this clearly and substantially problematic proposal.
To create a paraphrase, what part of "neither short term nor a fix" did you not understand?
The concept of "short term" never applies to infrastructure changes, and as Fred pointed out -- ableit again my paraphrase -- we are messing with something deep in the IETF's processing infrastructure.
Equally, taking something that already imposes unnecessarily broad impact, and layering onto it a hack that imposes even more impact, is not a fix.
