Re: ietf.org unaccessible for Tor users

Warren is spot on. Not a surprise, of course :-)

The takeaway for me from this thread is problems with CAPTCHA’s, some 
situations where CAPTCHA’s don’t even appear, the tuning of various filters, 
and possible additional mirrors. I have asked the IETF tools and IT folks to 
take a look. This isn’t the only thing they are doing, so it will probably take 
some time to figure out what we can do. And they still must be able to deal 
with denial of service attacks from all over the Internet and not just Tor, and 
yes, the tools at our disposal will be imperfect, and yes, there will be some 
pain for some users as a result. They will do their best. Don’t expect miracles.

I would also like to ask that we not dwell deeply on the goodness or not of Tor 
or any other networks or systems for that matter. We’re not here to pass 
judgment, but of course we try to enable access to IETF resources as widely as 
we can.
