[auth48] Re: AUTH48: RFC-to-be 9965 <draft-ietf-emu-eap-arpa-10> for your review

[Megan Ferguson <[e-mail]>]

Alan,

A quick pre-publication question:

In the Acknowledgments, I see "Ignes Robles”.  I happen to be working on another document that is acknowledging a “Maria Ines Robles” (who confirmed she prefers Maria Ines instead of just Ines just this week).  Is this the same person or should this remain Ignes?

Thank you.
