Hi Avri and John, I interpreted Harald's note differently than you did... I took this part: After all this threading, it seems clear that it would be bad to send out the Last Call today as planned without settling this issue. To mean that Harald is _not_ starting the IETF Last Call as scheduled.

I tend to agree. As I mentioned in another note, I too am uncomfortable with the appeal procedures. In my case, I am not so much concerned about the ability to overturn decisions, such as contracts that are signed, as I have accepted that allowing this might make the job impossible. But I am c

Assuring ISOC commitment to AdminRest

I have talked privately to some folks (including ISOC Board members) about this, and I think it's high time to start seriously thinking about it: The BCP is the *IETF's* description of what the *IETF* expects out of this administrative function. But a good deal of the structure we're describin

Hi All, Here are my last call comments on draft-ietf-iasa-bcp-02.txt. I have included enough context that I hope you will be able to understand where my comments apply. If not, just ask. My comments are marked with '>>' in-line below. I am afraid that this is quite a long list. In my opinion

Pete, I understand your concern, but I don't think it is necessary. Worse, I suspect that, were ISOC to start changing their bylaws in this sort of direction and in ways that would actually provide the guarantees you want, they would reasonably insist on reciprocal provisions that would prevent IE

A hacker broke into one of my systems using a consultants weak password and installed a root kit. Fortunately they did not do much damage before being caught.
