Re: [Eligibility-discuss] New draft: draft-rescorla-istar-recall-00

["Joel M. Halpern" <[e-mail]>]

Given your description here, I would have expected the document to 
include a clear set of definitions for what constituted legitimate 
grounds for such expulsion.
As written, although you specify an appeal process there does not seem 
to be any well-defined grounds provided for such an appeal.

If it is really about cases of serious non-performance, I would think it 
should say that.  And that it should take more than 67% of the body for 
the removal.

Yours,
Joel
