Yes it has. 

Many thanks to those on this list - and other lists - who responded rapidly and 
helped resolve this quickly.

It appears so; I went to it earlier in the day and it was up; I saw the
post by Julia Postel asking whoever was putting the page up to contact
the family. I kept the processing of this for later (now) and I get the
page cannot be found too.

I just tried going to this page and it says it doesn't exist.  Has the problem 
been fixed?

I don't think it helps the case against this page to have "Likes" by
W3C, Tim Berners-Lee, Vint Cerf, ARIN and ICANN ... of course,
there is no reason for me to know that those aren't frauds as well.

a favor from the list about Jon Postel

Hi, all,

My apologies for contacting this list with a non-IETF issue, but since 
this community knew Jon well, I'm asking for its help (among others).

There is a Facebook page that falsely implies being owned by Jon Postel:

https://www.facebook.com/jon.postel

Facebook has declined requests from Jon's family to have this page removed.

To everyone on this list:

PLEASE do not "LIKE" or interact with this page. Jon passed in 1998, as 
you know, 5 years before Facebook ever existed. He never had a page on 
this or any other social networking site, and whomever is running this 
should stop misrepresenting themselves.


If anyone here can help, please let me know.
