My view is that your impression of the reaction is incorrect. in taking the position that respondents can be classified as either: a) being satisfied with the IESG *decision*, b) dissatisfied or uncomfortable with the decision, or c) could not be clearly determined by the content of their response, I came up with the following list. Dissatisfied Satisfied Other ------------ --------- ----- Robert Elz Thomas Narten Barbara Roseman John Leslie Sam Hartman Yakov Rekhter Ken Carlberg Bob Hinden Scott Brim Ralph Droms Brian Carpenter Spencer Dawkins Steve Silverman Allison Mankin Thomas Hruska Jefsey Morfin Harald Alvestrand Randy Presuhn John Klensin Keith Moore Scott Bradner Nick Staff Bill Sommerfeld Lawrence Roberts Eliot Lear Vint Cerf Joel Halpern Dave Crocker Margaret Wasserman Ned Freed Jeffrey Hutzelman Grenville Armitage Hans Kruse I listed names so that people could object to my interpretation, and I'm sure I made a mistake or two. But at best, it seems the reaction is split, and not to be viewed as objections coming from simply a few but persistant people. -ken ps, I hope your vacation is going well :) _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
