Re: [apps-discuss] draft-santos-smtpgrey-02: SMTP Service Extension for Greylisting Operations

exactly here the issue is to understand how many people are really interested in the issue
and especially if the ones interested they can spend enough cycles to review and provide
comments so to let the draft progress

As we are chartered quite openly (and this is ok for THIS WG) and of course are a mix of all Apps Area expertises, of course I do not presume that 60% of WG people stand up and work an any specific draft, just because it does not fit their own expertise area: I'd not stand up for an XML draft for actual work, just because I do not feel I'm the righ person to do that for example, but I'll put my +1 on XML drafts I believe are worth... and the expect the XML experts to contribute. Given this personal humble assumption, I'm not saying that we should formally "wheight" the +1s according the people's expertise area, but at least to think about this when we take adotion decisions.
