Public vs. private is entirely orthogonal to 'formally powerful' vs. 'has leverage but no formal authority'. By way of example: A document writer has made statements to a participant that violate the boundaries acceptable to the Ombud team. The statements were made in private, but have been sufficiently verified. The Ombud feels that the document writer needs to be removed from any position of leverage in the IETF, other than "regular participant". Currently, it's the Chair(s) who have the authority to remove that person, not the Ombud. But confidentiality constrains the Ombud possibly from making the request and certainly from explaining why. d/ ps. Extra credit: Note that the confidentiality thing prevents any sort of persistent application of a decision. There's no way to bar someone from being a document writer going forward, even if we figure out how to handle the immediate situation. -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net
