Mohsen,

One of the advantages of becoming a geezer is that you get to say what
you REALLY think.  However, good taste prevents my telling you in public
what I REALLY think about your message.

I would like to remind you that, had the RFC Editor been "a mere
agent" of the IESG, your EMSD RFC 2524 would not have been
published at all.
