Since a few people are asking questions that were answered in the original email, here is a link to the mail that was sent to ietf-announce on October 22, 2012: https://www.ietf.org/ibin/c5i?mid=6&rid=49&gid=0&k1=934&k2=11277&tid=1351092666 I thought this would be helpful since it was only sent to ietf-announce, not to the IETF list.
