I have written an Internet Draft on the IETF Golden Rules which may be very controversial.
Abstract: This memo presents the following rules, which to some extend can be regarded as the golden rules of IETF, even though there are exceptions when these rules should not be adhered to. - Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send - Do not munge forwarded data - Modify as late as possible - Cause no harm - Leave nothing undefined - Keep it simple, stupid - No voting, rough consensus - Plain ASCII text is enough I have started a mailing list to discuss this draft, so that people not interested don't have to participate. To subscribe to the mailing list, go to http://lists.dsv.su.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ietf-golden/ Do not comment on the draft in ietf@ietf.org or [EMAIL PROTECTED], use the new mailing list. -- Professor Jacob Palme <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Stockholm University and KTH) for more info see URL: http://www.dsv.su.se/jpalme/ _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
