Frank, Not publishing it at all is an alternative. And this is what we should do, if the community feels that way. However ... It would send an unmistakable message to wannabe-authors, that they should use the independent path, unless they're a friend of a friend of an AD. I personally

I agree with Tom that the draft - at least IMHO - does not promote or strongly encourage reliable logging. I also agree with the observation that reliable - and blocking - logging can cause harm to a system. However, I do not think that this is anything that the protocol can do something
