Mike, you needn't object unless the chairs put people in our
kill-files, and I can assure you that we don't. There's nothing that
requires any participant to read the posts by any other participant --
although as a chair, I'd rather the editors did read all posts related
to their documents -- but it's up to the chairs to evaluate consensus.
Barry, would that it worked that way. I have on many occasions
supplied text, alternative wording, etc, only be completely
ignored because I'm in Dave's killfile. Editors with killfiles
should not be editors. Period. It completely breaks down the working
group process. It's particularly galling since I'm one of the
AUTHORS and FIRST IMPLEMENTER of the spec under revision.
Remove Dave immediately.
Mike, I prefer this discussion remain public
Therefore, the consensus that goes into the document will reflect what
the chairs see.
Barry, as chair
