The experience within the IETF may be far different. I would be interested to know which countries have a reduced list because of intrinsically better behavior as opposed to the enshrinement of unacceptable behavior into law? The point about the characteristics is that they are fundamentally human and thus highly likely to be applicable. > > Is there age discrimination in the IETF? Does age need to be a protected characteristic? Now that is a really interesting question isn't it. I suspect that there is and thus it does. > I could honestly ask the same question for most of the other characteristics in that list.On the other hand that list does not include characteristics such as employment and nationality that are very likely to come up in the IETF. > > We’ve had a call to remove a chair in the IRTF based on his employer last year, and people are often judged based on how “cool” their employer is (Google and Cisco are cool. Microsoft? Not so much) as well as based on their country (Russia is not cool right now. Finland always is) I have no objection to the lengthening of the list, although I note that at one level employer discrimination is fundamental to our operation in that we often decline someone who might be the better chair or AD on affiliation grounds in order to achieve an affiliation balance. > > So I don’t think that list is appropriate for us. > Well note that many of those items are actually on the list already, and to list one that is not, but which I explicitly raised, there is the issue of disability discrimination and I do not see how that can be tolerated? - Stewart
