Complaint about inappropriate behavior by Stephane Bortzmeyer

2004-10-04 10:33:53

The following message by Stephane Bortzmeye includes an inappropriate
personal attack in violation of the following sections of the ISOC Code of
Conduct:  http://www.isoc.org/members/codeconduct.shtml

7  Only offer or claim to offer opinions or services that lie within the 
   member's actual knowledge or competence.

8  In the case of financial or material conflict between personal and 
   professional interests, or between two professional interests, declare 
   this conflict to all interested parties and if appropriate in public.

9  Respect the generally accepted norms of Internet etiquette for human 
   communications, especially by avoiding communications that are false or 
   are likely to be considered as discourteous, objectionable, malicious, 
   unwanted, or causing unjustified loss of prestige. Avoid fraudulent or 
   deceptive statements. 

11 Treat all users and colleagues fairly and on equal terms.


And the message violates the following sections of the IETF Guidelines for 
Conduct RFC 3184:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3184.txt?number=3184

1. IETF participants extend respect and courtesy to their colleagues
      at all times.

      IETF participants come from diverse origins and backgrounds and
      are equipped with multiple capabilities and ideals.  Regardless of
      these individual differences, participants treat their colleagues
      with respect as persons--especially when it is difficult to agree
      with them.  Seeing from another's point of view is often
      revealing, even when it fails to be compelling.
      English is the de facto language of the IETF, but it is not the
      native language of many IETF participants.  Native English
      speakers attempt to speak clearly and a bit slowly and to limit
      the use of slang in order to accommodate the needs of all
      listeners.

   2. IETF participants develop and test ideas impartially, without
      finding fault with the colleague proposing the idea.

      We dispute ideas by using reasoned argument, rather than through
      intimidation or ad hominem attack.  Or, said in a somewhat more
      IETF-like way:

            "Reduce the heat and increase the light"

If Av8 turns on PPLB, traffic to F-root will go through both sprint
and att on a per-packet basis.

Troll Bot <dean(_at_)av8(_dot_)com> keeps mentioning PPLB. May be some people
more knowledgeable about BGP than I am will explain to me why PPLB is
such a new issue for anycasting?

Even without PPLB, the simple and normal (though infrequent) change of
the routes by BGP may disturb existing TCP sessions if the target is
anycasted. This is why anycast is currently deployed only on
mostly-UDP services like the DNS.

So, it seems there is nothing new coming from the PPLB thing.
