While I have a lot of sympathy for the cause, I have very little
sympathy for the methods.
I have NO sympathy for the cause.
Rendering a mailing list that might be useful for actually resolving
the issue inoperative by a "campaign" is idiotic.
Somebody from I* (the IETF chair may not be the right person this
time) should call them and explain that this is not the way to win
friends and impress people.

PS: kill-filing messages CCed to campaigns@xxxxxxxx might help a bit.
I don't know if the procedures allow to do this at the mailing list
level.
Boy do I agree with you - The creation of a standard *** should *** have
nothing to do with IP rights or licensing. The creation of any standard
should JUST be based on whether proper vetting happened and whether the
minimum number of ports was created and formally tested for
interoperability. Anyone - and I mean ANYONE should be able to get a
Standard by making the steps happen.
