Hi Eliot, > RFC 3683 gives you broad discretion on the basis to make a > decision, and gives WG chairs broad discretion on what > actions they should take. As you had a hand in it, perhaps > you can refresh my memory, Just for the record... I was not involved in the publication of RFC 3683. I wrote RFC 3934/BCP 94. That's the one that allows WG chairs to suspend posting priveleges on WG mailing lists for up to 30 days. Prior to that RFC, only the full IESG could suspend anyone's posting priveleges, even temporarily.
