(One problem with such a broad recommendation is that a newcomer
will have no way to know who in the IETF organization colludes with
whom. We may think it is a job requirement for an AD to be able to
act like an ombudsman, but how does the newcomer know that.)
I trimmed the Cc.
The above comment was in response to a recommendation for the person
to contact an Area Director [1] or the entire Internet Engineering
Steering Group if that person felt abused or harassed. One of the
points which was lost in the discussion was about readily-available
information.
There was a URL on the "home page" of the IETF web site to point to
whom to contact. The fact that the URL is no longer there means that
the information is no longer important enough. The consequence is
that a person who is not familiar with the IETF may have some
difficultly finding the appropriate contact to discuss the matter with.

1. The qualifications and operating practices of the ombudsperson are
different from the qualifications and operating practices of an Area Director.
