The reason you want to require say 10 signatures is because you want to avoid a denial of service attack on the process. You don't want someone who lost a contract appealing unless there were significant process irregularities. My assumption is that if the members of the IAOC want to gum up the works with useless appeals, you might as well get the recall petition started. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
