I've absolutely zero issue with new people engaging, but lots of one line "+1"
or almost identical emails isn't meaningful engagement.
Hi,
As i understand it, it won't be meaningful only if people unsubscribe from
the list after stating support or opposition -- but i have no clue even
about the list's current size.
If newcomers are aware this list exists, and understand it is the proper
place where they can contribute to policy-making (regarding Anti-Abuse),
they could be a bit more interactive in further discussions. :-)
I think for most newcomers, it won't be very easy to just subscribe and
immediately start writing long messages.
Regards,
Carlos

Hi Michele, All,
I had to Google for 'astroturfing'. I learned something today. :-)
As i see it, the "community" is not a closed group.
It was repeateadly stated that "consensus" or "rough consensus" is not a
vote. I think that is clear for everyone.
Just like a few days ago i wrote that i hoped there wasn't any kind of
discrimination against portuguese participants, i hope there isn't also
any kind of discrimination against new participants on this WG.
I may understand if some people prefer to have less people in the WG, but
i'm not part of that set.
While worrying about how we can improve rules/tools against Abuse (that's
the point of an Anti-Abuse WG, right?), i would also like to see a much
larger number of people involved!
If someone has any doubt about if newcomers are real persons, then
please Google away. :-)
I met in person most of people that are supporting 2019-03 and also
those that are opposing it (some of which i even co-authored other
proposals), since a while back.
ps: I think i haven't met Sebastien Lahtinen in person since 10y or so, so
if 2019-03 made him show up on the list, that's another plus :-))
Best Regards,
Carlos
