> Asking IETF WG chairs to deal with passwords is a bit silly. Maybe they could be emailed a monthly reminder of their personal subscription password on the first of each month.

Section 4 otherwise seems repetitive. - 3.3.1.4 says: Since it is possible to participate in IETF without attending meetings, or even joining a mailing list, IETF WG chairs will provide the information to anyone who requests it. However, since IEEE 802 work-in-progress is copyrighted, incorporating material into IETF documents or posting the username/password on mailing lists or websites is not permitted. That's a pretty bogus setup. I would think that if IEEE do want to share some or all drafts with us they could much more easily create a web page when those drafts are available without access control. Or we could if they didn't mind. (Or I could do it if there's no "we" that wants to:-) Asking IETF WG chairs to deal with passwords is a bit silly. I'm not objecting to this, but am suggesting someone ask IEEE if they'd like to consider the silliness here and fix it. S.
