I disagree with this approach.

We should ask the RFC Series Editor to consult international experts on technical language and the editors of other major standards such as IEEE, ETSI and ITU and report back to us with a recommendation.

We had a productive if short discussion of draft-knodel-terminology-03 in the GENDISPATCH session last week. The authors have some action items, and there is likely to be further discussion of this topic at a future GENDISPATCH interim. As I said at the mic during the session, email discussion on this topic does not seem to be helping the discussion progress. Let’s give it a rest and those interested in the topic can reconvene when the GENDISPATCH interim gets scheduled.
