Re: [Anima] rfc822Name use in Autonomic Control Plane document

[Michael Richardson <[e-mail]>]

Ben, this is getting very very tiresome.

PLEASE go read RFC7282.
"Rough consensus is achieved when all issues are addressed, but not necessarily accommodated"

Also:
   A diligent chair who's been carefully listening to the
   discussion might think, "I have heard person X make this objection,
   and I've heard responses from many other folks that really address
   the issue.  I think we have rough consensus.

I will note that *I* objected to rfc822Name. (And that I changed my mind.
I can live with it)

But, you have been effectively weidling a veto on quite a number of drafts, and
that is not in the spirit of rough consensus.  It's just not your job.

If it were your job, then we would not have WGs, Adopton calls, we would not
do WGLC reviews, nor WG charters, etc.   We'd just submit our documents to you.

But, this is not only your fault: had the rest of the IESG actually voted rather
than Abstained or No Comment, then we'd have actual rough consensus, and the
IESG seems to have abandonned that.

says: Reviews

RTGDIR Last Call Review: Not Ready
IOTDIR Early Review (of -18): Ready
SECDIR Telechat Review (of -16): Has Issues
GENART Telechat Review (of -16): Ready with Nits
RTGDIR Telechat Review (of -13): Ready
SECDIR Early Review (of -13): Has Issues
GENART Last Call Review (of -13): Not Ready

(Unfortunate that many reviewers do not update their opinion when we act on
their advice.   So, for instance, the SECDIR review says in her text that it
is ready)

I guess you feel that it hasn't been cross-area reviewed unless you have
blessed it?  I think you should probably disband the SECDIR, because they are
clearly not helping you or anybody.  In fact, those reviews are just wasting
everyone's time.

So, our process is that the *WG* takes these views into account, and
then makes a decision.
That includes sponsoring AD reviews and IESG comments.
The WG took the objections to rfc822Name into account already.
You do not have the right to override the WG decision.
