Re: Conclusion of the last call on draft-housley-two-maturity-levels

My main conclusion for the moment is that Last Call comments should indicate 
first of all a definite Support or Oppose for the decision at hand if they are 
to be counted for or against consensus.

I'm not going to state a position, which means that you should not count me as 
either for or against the proposal.

First, I'm in full agreement with Ross.

Second, for the record and as a response to Keith, my read of the discussion 
on the last call was the biggest group of responses said that we should move 
forward with the draft. There were two smaller groups, those with a clear 
objection and those with roughly a "no-objection" or "it does not cause harm" 
opinion (and a group who seemed to discuss orthogonal issues and not respond 
to the question). I could of course have made mistakes in this determination, 
but I thought it was rough (perhaps very rough) consensus.

Of course, it gets more interesting if you start thinking about the reasons 
why people wanted to move forward. Keith's latest e-mail has interesting 
theories about those. I don't think anyone thinks this is the priority #1 
process fix for the IETF. For me, cleaning cruft from the IETF process RFCs 
is a big reason for supporting this work. And I must admit that we seem to be 
in a place where its very, very hard to make _any_ process RFC changes. 
Getting one done, even if its a small change would by itself be useful, IMO. 
Finally, I think two levels are enough.
