Harald is attempting to assemble information that he will use to 
propose a PR-action (a "Posting Rights" action), as described in RFC 
3683.  Once he has assembled this information, he will presumably use 
the information to persuade a member of the IESG (an AD) to sponsor 
this action.  That AD would then be in charge of running a fair and 
open process to decide whether or not Jefsey Morphin's posting rights 
should be revoked.


I confess that I'm uneasy about Harald's action.  It has too much the 
air of an unpopularity contest -- every one who doesn't like Jefsey's
should sign on to kick him off the mailing list.

Hello;

I think it should make you uneasy. Just wait until someone on the other end of 
this puts up a
similar petition and gets a few thousands signatories after posting an 
inflammatory diary to the
right blog or mailing list.

FWIW, I have read through the various emails on this (including the emails to 
the
IETF list from M Morphin), and I do not support Harald's action.

OTOH, I have changed my mind on the other case based on Mr. Anderson's recent 
emails, and 
do support David Kessens's recent action.

Regards
Marshall Eubanks
