So, to clarify the process, Phill did not submit an appeal to the IESG under section 6.5 of RFC 2026. Rather, he took his complaint directly to you.

As an aside at this point - is there a formal description of this complaint to you as an "appeal"? If so, where is the process documented?
It was an appeal because I advise the IETF chair that I wished to make an appeal and I followed the procedure that he advised me to take and the AD advised me to take.
I don't believe that I should be the one looking through books to find out what the correct appeals process is.
My complaints are as follows:
1) I was prevented from contributing to what purports to be an IETF proposed standard.
2) I made complaints about this in last call
3) I was effectively denied the ability to appeal.
So yes, I do insist that this be listed as an appeal in the plenary and that the outcome is listed as 'it was botched'.
