Yes, I brought this up to the IESG last June wrt revising RFC1123. drums
can not for good reasons work on this at this time. In June, I got "attacked"
by Intel's mail server as retribution for posting to the pci-sig mailing

That was June. I refrained from posting to the mailing list during July

I'm considering simply starting an RBL-type list that lists the IP
