            well might not be
            "part of" the IETF -- always a strange line of thinking, given that
            the IETF doesn't have members -- but that doesn't mean that
            the Stream itself
            is outside the IETF.
        
            Any I-D author MUST be part of IETF otherwise what is IETF
            then, how do we define it? I think we should not make simple
            facts complicated. The most important part of IETF is the
            participant that does volunteer his work effort and time for
            the IETF. However I assume you agree with me because you
            mentioned "might".

    No sir - the IETF is a GSO meaning it must be transparent. Otherwise
    it is a simple fraternal organization and it should not be allowed
    to stand as a GSO because of its refusal to be open and transparent.
    

    As to the need for an open standards process as an alternative
    method...  everything you cite above is the reason that is so
    necessary.
