Al,

What an especially clever way of drumming up concensus.  You insult people
who have different opinions than your own.  You diminish requirements that
people have that differ from your own company's plans.  You ignore guidance
from the area director.  

I've actually had numerous people comment in agreement with me, in private
email communication, mail to the list, and in person at the IETF meetings.

It doesn't appear to me that we have arrived at anything near a concensus
on your naming plan.  

Bruce
