As a member of or sympathizer with various societies for bear encouragement and preservation (black, brown, polar, Cub Scouts, Teddy, Pooh, ... in no particular order), I find this name really objectionable. From the description, "unbearerable" might have been better, "betterbearer" certainly would have been. "unbearable" should be reserved for April 1 RFCs and similar work efforts :-) I wonder if anyone has ever appealed a mailing list name. unbearably yours, john --On Friday, December 05, 2014 11:18 -0800 IETF Secretariat <ietf-secretariat@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > A new IETF non-working group email list has been created. > > List address: unbearable@xxxxxxxx > Archive: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/unbearable/ > To subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/unbearable > > Purpose: > > This list is for discussion of proposals for doing better than > bearer tokens (e.g. HTTP cookies, OAuth tokens etc.) for web > applications.
