Dear Ms Kuehlewind,

There is the following sentence in Mr Klensin's email: "The IETF has 
a rather long and difficult history, with only a few exceptions since 
the POISED and POISSON WGs, of there being two types of process 
change proposals".  Is that incorrect?

There is also the following sentence: "They, and especially ones that 
members of the IESG see as a threat to their authority or the way 
they do things and sometimes as adding work, have tended to 
vanish".  Is the IESG the final authority for all standards decisions?

The term "members of the community" is mentioned in your reply.  What 
does a person have to do become a member of the community?

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
