IETF Last Call under RFC 3683 concerning JFC (Jefsey) Morfin

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The IESG has received a request from Harald Alvestrand to approve an RFC
3683 PR-action  ("posting rights" action) for JFC (Jefsey) Morfin as a
result of a pattern of prior warning and posting rights suspensions for
off-topic postings to the LTRU working group and ietf-languages mailing
lists that have not produced a change in behavior.  This behavior has been
characterized as a "denial-of-service" attack to disrupt the
consensus-driven process as described in Section 1 of RFC 3683.  A timeline
of warnings and posting rights suspensions related to this request is
included below.

The IESG will consider this request.  If approved, the PR-action described
in Section 2 of RFC 3683 includes provisions to allow list administrators to
suspend Mr. Morfin's posting rights to the LTRU working group and
ietf-languages mailing list for at least one year.  Maintainers of other
IETF mailing lists may also remove posting rights to their mailing lists at
their discretion.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action.  Please send any comments to the iesg@xxxxxxxx or
ietf@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 17 February 2006.

For the IESG,
Scott Hollenbeck
Applications Area Director
