No, I don't care that having a moderator-in-the-middle filtering
everything is in the spirit of the midcom charter and must be for my
own good. I _really_ don't like the concept of an IETF-approved
poster to a mailing list on an IETF-run server.
Given how trivially easy it is to subscribe to midcom and
other IETF mailing lists I'm not sure that it's appropriate
to describe the filtering process as anything but completely
loose.
you're missing the point. one shouldn't have to jump through extra
hoops (even if they're trivial to jump through) just to contribute
to a working group discussion.
I'm also not certain that I see the value in having
people who don't read a mailing list posting to it, but okay,
whatever.
for midcom it's especially valuable, since a number of people in
midcom seem to think that they have the right to redesign the
architecture of the Internet. they definitely need clue inputs
from elsewhere.
