Yes, so let's vote and forget the discussion. Making a ballot is the fastest
way to switch to a new topic. A ballot can be used for every non important
issuse. I'm not interested in the result. I can live with both results.

Lutz, let me speak more plainly.  The chair will not hear further
discussion on this issue.  The chair did not call for a straw poll.  There
will be no vote on this.

I have heard no compelling reason to change the term.  We will continue to
use "packets" to refer to PGP protocol data units.

Continuing in this vein is counterproductive.
