Re: British or American spelling in IETF docs

[John C Klensin <[e-mail]>]

Sure, Corinne.  I suppose that makes a case for Esperanto on the
grounds that it would probably discriminate equally against
almost everyone in this community, is no one's first language,
and is relatively easy to learn.  We could, of course, set
considerations about a better Internet aside while people who
wanted to contribute to the IETF learned it and should not worry
about anyone who, rather than learn it, dropped out.  And, of
course, anyone who thought reading and understanding RFCs (and
any other IETF work) would need to learn it too... and would
immediately do that rather than moving on.  

Did you have a better plan in mind?
