Re: Harassment, abuse, accountability. and IETF mailing lists

[Keith Moore <moore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At least as a first approximation, I'm ok with the policy for non-WG 
IETF mailing lists being the same as the policy for WG mailing lists, 
and from that perspective the only clarification that seems to be needed 
is to identify just who gets to decide when someone has crossed a line 
and what to do about it.

But I don't want to create a duty to monitor non-WG mailing lists.  I 
don't actually think that having people who deliberately looking for 
excuses to sanction people's behavior on non-WG mailing lists is a good 
idea at all.  That sounds a lot like witch hunting to me.    Face it, 
someone who wants to find reasons to attack someone will certainly find 
them.   And a person who never says anything controversial is probably 
someone who is lacking in candor that IETF desperately needs.
