Easy - don't go to events where you don't want people to know. The names are available. If you don't want your name on the list of attendees - don't attend. I doubt they copied the entire list. What horrible thing do you think they were doing with your name or email address? Is the fact they knew your name offensive? Or do you think that spammers attend the IETF meeting just to get email addresses? What's the issue? -Doug begin:vcard n:Royer;Doug tel;cell:208-520-4044 tel;fax:208-552-1179 tel;work:208-520-4044 x-mozilla-html:TRUE url:http://Royer.com/People/Doug org:INET-Consulting LLC version:2.1 email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] title:Chief Executive Manager adr;quoted-printable:;;1795 W.

Go up to them and start yelling, loudly, in the middle of the meeting if need be. Then take the sheets from them and forward them on. The blue sheets are not for this purpose. If everyone knows who the offenders are they can be made to stop. Perry

In fact, if the person doing the copying simply wanted names, why didn't he/she go to the registration list on the web? Probably because he's interested in marketing to the special interests of the people at the WG, and wanted to get their email addresses quickly and easily. Very offensive.

This brings up another question: why are email addresses collected on the blue sheets? Aren't names sufficient? The secretariat already has everybody's email addres from the registration form.
