Hi,
I have tried hard to just stay out of any conversation
including Todd,
but I think this one deserves comment.
Todd, I don't know whether you do not understand how the
IETF actually
works, or you choose to describe it using your own ideas of
how it
works, but that the use of non-standard terminology makes it
very hard
for others to understand whether your points are worthwhile
or not.
To my knowledge, there is no "publishing desk"
in the IETF.
To my knowledge, there is no "Publisher's ID
template" in the IETF.
I concur that the I-D publication procoess is not a
"mechanical
apparatus".
And I concur that the "mechanics" of I-D
publication is not what the
IPR WG should be focusing on.
I have taken the time to walk through some of your comments,
and in
general, I find that your approach of refusing to properly
understand
the IETF process leads you to make erroneous assumptions and
proposals
that are not really relevant to this WG.
I also find that the tremendous number of posts you make,
ignoring
most feedback except to fight with Harald, makes it a real
waste of my
time and the time of others to follow this WG's mailing
list. I really
do wish that you would just stop posting to this list so the
WG
members can try to get some real work done.
As a WG chair, I consider the manner in which Harald
responded to be
appropriate for a WG chair. He pointed out that you did not
put your
proposal into terminology consistent with the description of
IETF
processes that has been accepted by consensus of the IETF
community,
and that you should use IETF terminology. This is the type
of
communication I would use when trying to explain to a poster
why their
posting is not useful, and how they could improve their
postings to
make them more useful.
I also find your postings in response to Harald insulting
and
incendiary and totally inappropriate.
Please stop.
