(Speaking without hats) Let's be clear about the division of labor here: RFC 7776 anticipates that common disruptive behavior on a WG mailing list is handled by the chair of the WG, and then escalated to the AD, IESG, etc. as needed. The ombudsteam process is normally reserved for the kinds of harassment that can't be dealt with that way. While the ombudsteam has been completely open to advising people (both participants and chairs) on cases of straightforward misbehavior (and in fact recently was asked to speak at a WG meeting in order to deal with such behavior), I would personally not be too keen on the default position for every concern to be brought to the ombudsteam; that's a recipe for the ombudsteam to become the good-behavior-enforcement-body in the IETF, which IMO would be a very bad thing (let alone against what RFC 7776 says). The default should always be to bring it to the person(s) leading the discussion, which in the case of WGs is the chair(s). For non-WG mailing lists, there is an IESG statement: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/disruptive-posting/. It's pretty clear that for non-WG lists, the administrator deals with disruptive posters. But I just happen to know about that IESG statement because Iwas on the IAB when an appeal caused that statement to be written. A newcomer probably would not know that non-WG list administrators are expected to deal with disruptions. More importantly, as John and others have said, finding the identify the list administrator is not trivial. Somewhere, in an easy to find spot, anyone should be able to discover the procedures for dealing with disruptive behavior and the names of the humans who handle it. pr -- Pete Resnick https://www.episteme.net/ All connections to the world are tenuous at best
