we had this exact problem with the many identities of "Jeff
Williams"; he had enough pseudo-personalities on the list that he
would sometimes claim to have a majority, jut from his own postings.
Since IETF does not vote, it is certainly not an issue here?
This is not totally true. A WG Chair or Area Director cannot judge
rough consensus if they are unsure if the portion of the population
that is representing a dissenting view is one person or many
different people. This is especially true when there are a large
number of silent observers.
