Hi all, Speaking as Sergeant-at-arms of the IETF exploder, I believe this is out of the scope for the IETF, and for sure for this list. Consequently, I will not accept any further email on this. If that happens, I will ask the secretariat to restrict posting rights for anyone involved. So please, all make sure to refrain from responding.
