[ message not quoted because of your included IETF policy modifier boilerplate ]
Dan,
You keep addressing your message to both Security ADs, and we already
explained before [1][2], and as confirmed by the IESG to be within the
rights of the Security ADs [3], that as Responsible AD, only I will be
handling this complaint.
Your email dated Oct 13 2025 still contains a disclaimer that attempts
to modify the IETF Standards Process. I addressed this in in [1] on June 12th:
mails should not include language that violates BCP 9 RFC 2026 Section
10.2 or BCP 25 RFC3978 Section 3.2 and should not include processing
instructions that are not backed by our Internet Standards Process.
and again in [2] on October 7 2025:
Additionally this time, both the email content and the remotely
hosted PDF contain language indicating you are not accepting
rights and obligations under the IETF Standards Process BCP9. As
with all other activities in the IETF, the policies the Note
Well reminds us of, also apply to the IETF conflict resolution
and appeals processes.
Thus, it cannot come as surprise that I still cannot process your email as a
valid Appeal Contribution under RFC 2026.
I also already explained why your current process modifier boilerplate
cannot be valid in any stretch of interpretationi [4].
As per IESG Appeal response [5], you have until 2025-10-15 to resubmit
your message in a form that can be processed as a complaint/appeal
under BCP9.

PS: Note that this also applies to your subsequent message that you sent out
with Message-ID: <[email protected]>.
This message I am responding to was held for moderator approval due to
its size. The mailman3 software has sent you a notify message warning
you of this, but I pressume the IETF daemon software did not agree to
the legal terms set forth by your autoresponder "QRsecrtary", and as
such you did not see that message. Again, please resolve your email
connectivity problems to avoid further undue noise on the TLS WG list.
