Jim needs to select those postings related to the topic and post the rest
elsewhere.
Stick to your position Harald!

    - Discussion of IETF administrative policies

by
RFC3005.

Some postings are professional since they are dealing with technical
matters
of Internet.
Some postings are informative since they contain hyper links that are
internet-technical, while most
of them are imflammatory.

IPv8 (or whatever) seems related to ther work of the Internet
Engineering
Task Force, on the basis of the first statement of overview of
IETF(http://www.ietf.org/overview.html), saying:

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is a large open international
community of network designers, operators, vendors, and researchers
concerned with the evolution of the Internet architecture and the smooth
operation of the Internet. It is open to any interested individual.

, without regards to the fact that the IETF 'has chosen' other
alternative.

I guess his postings are not laming IETF's constructive work and
procedures
for now.
If posted opinion is right, the society will accept it. If not, will
not.

Jim,

after having reviewed the multitude of email that you have sent to the
IETF
list over the past week, I find that it does not conform to the
guidelines
in RFC 3005 for appropriate posting to the IETF list.

Your postings are unprofessional, noninformative, inflammatory, and to
a
large degree (such as dealing with "IPv8") unrelated to the work of
the
IETF.

You have established a pattern of such postings; when the previous
outburst
subsided in early August, many of us hoped that you had found reason
to
cease this inappropriate activity, but plainly, you have not.

If this pattern continues, action according to RFC 3005 will be taken.
