Jim, Dave and Sam.

Let me suggest that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. Treat
contributions with respect.  We are not "children" here.

Stop "Playing MIND Games."

William,

Rules or no rules, surely you realize that comments of the sort below
are not contributing in a positive way to accomplishing the work of this
group.  I, for one, would like to have a meaningful technical discussion
on this list, and comments about personalities and motives detract from
that because it is those comments that stick in everyone's mind.  Any
worthwhile technical value from those participants gets overshadowed.

We have the potential to do a lot of good here, and we mustn't squander
that opportunity.  Please consider carefully what you are doing before
pressing the "send" button.

-Jim

Yes, private ad hominem attack warnings is one of Dave's favorite
games with supposed ietf list management rules (which were never
properly introduced and are thus not active except for those people
who explicitely agreed). It must be his private agenda to shut up
everyone who does not agree with his positions... :)
