I do hear many stories about twitter letting people get in touch with the right organizational contact; a lot of them even "make the news" for some definition of "news". I wonder if they remain newsworthy because achieving success is far from guaranteed, whether by "traditional" methods or by twitter. > these half-assed "the market demands something" panaceas provide false > solutions we have to clean up later; emphasis on that last clause. > rwhois anyone? the highway is littered with whitepages roadkill. today > there is a massive problem with authority in the IRR (which some RIRs > throw in with whois); and retrofitting a solution is now years in blah > blah blah. > > no one is asking for the perfect over the good. but it is our > obligation, before putting the ietf stamp on it, for it to be as good as > we can reasonably get for the time. this proposal is not, as has been > enumerated time and again as it has been shoved through the process over > objections. > > imiho, tero's review stands. I do note the second 'i', but I have to say that to me, "shoved through the process over objections" sounds like a pretty serious process violation that ought to be remedied. I'd like to better understand what you see as the process violation (if any) here, so that I can try to remedy it. I note that the IETF LC period is still open, and I am closely reading all the feedback (e.g., including Paul Hoffman's note that arrived a bit after yours) and will make an assessment of whether there is IETF consensus to publish the document based on the feedback received during the last call. (Which is to say, I do not consider consensus to be a foregone conclusion.) Thanks, Ben -- last-call mailing list last-call@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/last-call
