Hi - In http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ash-alt-formats-00.txt section 3 says: | Furthermore, the authors propose that the IESG carefully consider | declaring consensus in support of the change even if a large number | of 'nays' are posted to the IESG discussion list. I object to this text, as it might (mis)lead the reader into thinking that the methods for declaring consensus were being modified, particularly if this document somehow became a BCP. To deal with this issue, I suggest the removal of the following material from section 3:
Agree. If the authors actually wish to propose a change to the way consensus is determined in the IETF, then they should do so in a separate document. Naturally, like any process change in any organization, such a change would have to be made under the _existing_ process before it could take effect.
