perhaps so. the question was raised, responses were given
and judgement has occured. some think it is a real issue, others
think its a non-issue and a waste of time. and perhaps both are
right in their own narrow pov. for me, the blue sheet issue
first drove me to sign & then not provide an email address. these days
when I do attend an IETF, I don't sign at all. Of course i don't
say much, if anything, so as not to run afoul of the other legal
strictures placed on IETF participants.
Now Scott claims this is not honest. I will need to spend some
time trying to understand why refusing to participate in all
aspects of a strictly voluntary process is dishonest.

Opinions expressed may not even be mine by the time you read them, and
certainly don't reflect those of any other entity (legal or otherwise).
