Dear Harald,
its seems that you are rewriting History (past and future) in the same funny way as before (eg. your PR-action letter). BTW I am happy to learn I am only suspended for 6 months from the obsolete ietf-languages(_at_)alvestrand(_dot_)no(_dot_) One month to go then.

Look, you have used RFC 3683 to DoS me, prevent the use of the "en-eu" langtag, make the IESG violate the WG-LTRU workable consensus I wanted and obtained, and confuse many to enforce your vision of the IETF. This RFC 3935 of yours vision where leaders like you make decisions to "influence the way the people design, use, and manage the Internet".

This was a cute trick. Making the most important architectural issue addressed through a confuse ad-hominem. Protecting your lobby from having to answer any technical point. But I am afraid this mostly disserved your positions. This is not the place for me to dwell on it. But we all experience that it hurts the IETF's credibility in the linguistic and political areas. Is that what you want? I do not.

I only want:
- interoperability between your UNICODE system for the IANA and the rest of our world,
- independence for the IANA without having to look for your "somewhere else",
- and the IETF to differentiate the English Globalization and Multilingualisation architectural layers.
or the IAB to say they do not want it. To document the http://bcp47.org site.

If you want me to pursue on the way you impose me, I will. However, is it your best interest? I will most probably continue to win, while we should agree and work together. Your decision anyway.

I regard a 6-month ritual of:

1) Unsuspending Jefsey from ietf-languages
2) Waiting until Jefsey discovers his unsuspension
3) Wading through Jefsey posts until everyone's sure he's still as incomprehensible as before
4) Convincing my then-current AD that it's time for another 6-month suspension
5) Suspending Jefsey for another 6 months
6) Dealing with his appeal of the suspension to the AD
7) Dealing with his appeal of the suspension to the IESG
8) Dealing with his appeal of the suspension to the IAB
9) Dealing with his appeal of the violation of his human rights to the ISOC BoD

as a silly waste of energy, an affront to people's sanity, and harmful to the IETF.

draft-hartman-mailinglist-experiment has been approved for 2 months at this point. While it disallows procedures that suspend people beyond November 2007, a procedure authorized under that umbrella would be a much better first step.

Don't throw away the umbrella because you're buying a raincoat next week. It's still raining.
