But I'm confident enough about my reading of the mail in my mailbox to say that the chair is right in saying that ISO 11179 conformance was considered by the WG (because Jefsey proposed it), and was rejected by the WG as irrelevant. Note: Jefsey's suspension on the ietf-languages list runs until July 15. After that, I have to modify my killfile so that I see mail he sends to that list. Until then, I see no reason why I should look at mail from him at all.
Thank you for at last showing publicly and with authority that ad-hominems are the answer given to the "dumb" idea that, WG-ltru and ISO dealing with the same topic (ISO Tables registries), mutual innovative considerations (and not only political lobbying) could help both. We, and all the people involved, know this cannot be otherwise and may mean a loss of commercial dominance over a significant part of the Internet.
We both think competition and free softwares foster better quality and innovation. And cultural empowerment is the key to a common and sustainable development. So, why? jfc
