> 3.2.2 ITU-T recognition at ISOC/IETF > > ITU-T Study Group Chairmen can authorize one or more members to > attend an IETF meeting as an official ITU-T delegate speaking > authoritatively on behalf of the Study Group (or a particular > Rapporteur Group). This seems rather at odds with the tradition that IETF participants are individuals who represent their own technical judgement rather than that of some other organization. I think it needs to be explicitly said that the opinions stated by such representatives are for information of the WG only and are not considered in determining WG consensus. The last thing we need is to have delegates from other organizations given more consideration in IETF WGs than the technical judgement of individual IETF participants. Keith
