That's nice.
Does recitation of your personal interpretation mean that it is
irrelevant that others interpreted differently? I've already heard one
senior participant promise to use the results of the hum as leverage for
working group activity.
Or do you mean that it is irrelevant that it was conducted in a manner
that /guaranteed/ it would be interpreted differently? That would imply
that shared understanding of a strategic position for the IETF doesn't
matter.
