> The question i have is more about who makes the decision. From what you are saying it sounds as if its fine if just the interested small set of people who are vocal enough chiming into the issue should be the ones making the decision. I am sorry if I was not clear, but I do not see that I said anything about who makes the decision. I thought it was obvious, given the context, that we follow normal IETF decision-making procedures. > My argument is that that group has not enough diversity to represent the diversity of the target audience of RFCs across the globe. We have that problem overall, don't we? (Rhetorical question: yes we do.) We can address what we think is problematic, and as more communities tell us of more things, we can address them too (or not, as the IETF decides to do). > As i proposed, i would be happy if we first agreed on what the goal is Okay. I like the IESG statement. I have no useful feedback on what you proposed.
