I don't think impugning people's motives is fair there, and asserting that they are making "an effort to make IETF less functional" commits that sin IMO. IIUC there are a bunch of people who think the IETF would be better run if we used COTS products and services much more. I don't tend to agree with that (being unfond of e.g., the privacy-loss and lack-of-control that I think would ensue), but I do think those people are well-intentioned. S.
