A few are more strident, and could be seen to be over the line in more technical discussions, but controversy is the nature of the topics at hand (cultural reform), and it should be expected that debates about the allowable modes of discourse will be more heated than most, and at times divisive. ADs and WG chairs aside, nobody is compelled to read all or any posts on these topics. If one does choose to engage, these topics are sure to to provoke emotional reactions on all sides, be prepared. -- Viktor. P.S. FWIW, I generally part ways with both the political left and the political right, a pox on both their houses (my grand parents and parents suffered or lost their lives as a result of fascism, communism, anti-semitism, ...). Some might take my non-support for the PR action as a sign support for the political right, they'd be mistaken. -- last-call mailing list last-call@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/last-call
