Of course, this has been true of every major technology innovation for the last couple of thousand years, once the technology pervades society. So we shouldn't be surprised or alarmed when public policy implications of IETF technical decisions show up. It's certainly true that in the current case, and the cases of RFC 1984 and 2804, there were public events and debates prior to the IETF taking a position. I don't see why we should be worried by that either, as long as we take technically based decisions that help the Internet work better. Brian
