No, that's not what I said. I said that the proto shepherd is responsible for sending the comment to the appropriate place. If the add holding the discuss wants to send it to the mailing listthat's fine. If the working group wants to send mail to the AD that's fine too. One of the reasons you might want to do things this way is that you might have a bunch of related discusses that you want to send to the mailing list all at once. I can think of other reasons the proto team might not want to require the AD holding the discuss send the message to the WG. I don't really care that much. My goal in writing to you was to let you know that your proposal disagreed with something and to suggest who you might want to talk to in order to resolve that disagreement. I'm not on the proto team; this particular issue is not something I care that much about either way. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
