The question raised by the original proposal here seems to be more one of whether we want to make a public policy statement about an issue already decided by delegates. After reading Manoj's messages, I think it's clear that, if people want to vote on whether to override the delegate decision, we should do that *first*. Then, once that's settled, we can look at what public position statements may or may not be appropriate. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
