I'm unsubscribing from ASRG. I'm tired of appeals to authority,
misrepresentation of proposals, contradictory reasons for opposition
to proposals, and the "duck and cover" approach when peoples
objections are directly refuted.
As someone trained professionally in problem solving and logic (with
a graduate degree in physics), I can recognize illogical and
fallacious arguments when I see them, despite not being a recognized
authority in DNS, spam, or fawning sycophanty. ASRG is now divided
into two camps: The one proposing solutions, now matter how ugly or
awkward; and the one opposing solutions, based mainly on
contrary-to-fact arguments.
The spam problem will be addressed despite ASRG, not because of it.
To all of the people who have had a positive contribution, even when
we disagreed, I appreciate your efforts. To the people who did their
best to oppose all contributions, you've got one less person to fight
against, and one more reason why you will be successful in preventing
the problem from every being solved.
Alan DeKok.
