Re: Last Call: <draft-mm-wg-effect-encrypt-07.txt> (Effect of Pervasive Encryption) to Informational RFC

Hi,

I'd like to let you know that I've placed this
draft-mm-wg-effect-encrypt on the next telechat (as a returning item).

The document has had a number of changes. I think that the changes
make the document much more readable and complete, but are largely
editorial, and that the document does not need another last call.

Please take a look at the document and provide feedback on the changes
(preferably by April 7th).

Please also let me know if you disagree, and feel that the changes are
significant enough that it really does require a new IETF LC.

Warren.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
