Dan, The chairs discussed your message last night / early this morning. Even if some of the content is on point and some of your complaints might be reasonable (e.g. "I tried to work with you but you never replied to me"), that does not excuse the personalized accusations and characterizations in the rest of your message. It is disruptive to getting work done in this group and will not be tolerated. This sort of thing has already been discussed with you privately. Consider this your public warning. Your behavior must change or your posting privileges will be suspended. Pete and Francesca On 14/10/2020, 01:05, "Gendispatch on behalf of Dan Harkins" <gendispatch-bounces@ietf.org on behalf of dharkins@lounge.org> wrote: On 10/13/20 2:17 PM, Mallory Knodel wrote: > Thank you very much Pete and Francesca for being thoughtful and > patient with this topic. > > I take issue with the negative connotation of the widely shared > sentiment that draft-knodel is controversial.

I don't think you're characterizing the controversy accurately. It is not that the topic is controversial and you have captured that in your document, the controversy is the way you describe issues, the fallacious logic, and the baseless accusations you make in your document that are controversial. > I'd like us to be brave in the face of this controversy not just to > overcome it, but to properly document it (and for some of us to live > through it) Live through it?

And I do not think > erasure of discord over the issues of racial inequality in the IETF is > an effective way to achieve the latter. I want racial equality too (and a cure for cancer!). But imposing speech codes and calling people racist is not the way to go about achieving that. The mere existence of a racial disparity (from some idealized "norm") is not evidence of racism, otherwise the NBA is the most racist organization in the USA if not the world given it is nearly 75% black when blacks make up 13% of the population. It seems that you're suggesting that publication of your draft, and the changing of certain metaphors in RFCs, is an effective way to achieve racial equality in the IETF. That is magical thinking. It's unhinged from reality. > The path forward if draft-knodel were to be the basis for a WG is > simply to add to and improve the documentation about why the > terminology recommendations exist. Some of that comes from academia > and some of it from other corners of the technical community at this > moment in time. Niels and I would gladly welcome those improvements. I provided comments in email to you and Niels. I gave you comments in an online IEEE 802 meeting when you tried (and failed I should note, in spite of accusations to the contrary made later) to get your draft's recommendations enacted in IEEE 802. And I gave you comments in the gendispatch meeting. You never replied to any of them, either in email or in the meetings. You just ignored me. Which isn't to say that no changes were made. I complained about how you called a person out, by name, as a racist for a comment made on a blog post 15 years ago. That was most unprofessional and I'm glad you removed it, but the text you replaced it with alleged racism among IETF participants for discussing this matter. You're basically calling me a racist (since I was one of the participants who tried to discuss this matter with you) which is outrageous. You should be glad I'm not the litigious sort. So your words say "we welcome improvements" and your actions say "if you disagree with us it means you're a racist." That is not the way to form consensus and it's not the way we get things done in the IETF. I agree with the chairs' observations: draft-gondwana is the way to go.
