Hi Carsten, Brian, all, Believe me, I tried. I did also speak at the plenary… nothing changed. I just got treated even worst… My experience thought me that it is not worth it until the bad apples are removed … which will never happen because personal connections and talks behind the scenes seem to trump everything else… I know it is disappointing, unfortunately the IETF experience means different things to different people… and I have been an enthusiastic IETFer and contributor for nearly 30 years … Not worth speaking up… Cheers, Max > On Jul 14, 2023, at 10:01 PM, Brian E Carpenter <brian.e.carpenter@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On 15-Jul-23 07:17, Carsten Bormann wrote: >>> On 14.
