Subject: RE: IAB Response to Appeal from Jefsey Morfin
Speaking for myself --
As noted in the appeal, quite a few documents relate to the revocation
of
posting rights. They cover different types of lists, authorized
enforcers,
potential behaviors, remedies, and procedures. At this point, the
major
issue seems to be non-WG lists. I don't think that the full set of
documents needs to be replaced to clarify most of the questions. That
would
be quite an undertaking and the IETF needs a clear, consistent set of
guidelines in the meantime.
So it is possible that a "glue document" would do the job; it is also
possible that the situation could be addressed without any documents at
all,
just by a clear set of guidelines and a statement of policy The major
issue
is whether the policy is clearly stated, widely understood and agreed to
by
the community and fairly administered.

Bernard,
The way I interpret your statement is that you feel that
replacement
of the existing set of documents - possibly with a single new document
- is preferred to writing one or more new documents with the intent to
just "glue" the current set back together.
Is that a correct interpretation?
