Richard, I think you are confusing two distinct points. 1. The thread that resulted from the IESG's own posting had become utterly pointless since it consisted entirely of two sides of the question repeating themselves. It was quite reasonable for the IETF Chair to request people to refrain and to take the discussion of the only relevant I-D (whatever its merits) to the most relevant WG. I'd probably have done the same thing in her shoes. 2. Now the SaA team has chosen to censor Nadim Kobeissi for presuming to challenge that action. As far as I can see, Nadim's postings IN NO WAY qualify as "a pattern of abuse". There are four in total. The two under the subject "Terminology discussion threads" are principally about IESG actions, not about the original topic. The second one is deeply sarcastic but I think we all understand why. The two under the subject "IESG Statement On Oppressive or Exclusionary Language" are IMHO quite useful contributions compared to most of that thread, and they were sent well *before* the IETF Chair's request to refrain from the discussion, and therefore cannot legitimately be considered by the SaA. In my opinion the SaA had absolutely no grounds to censor Nadim; to the contrary he was saying something important about the IESG. I hope he's aware of the appeal process. Incidentally, the SaA message included the phrase "against the direction from the IETF Chair." It's certainly true that the Chair can give directions to the SaA team, but the Chair can't give directions to the IETF; as Fred Baker used to say, "I'm called the chair because everybody sits on me."
