Hmm... Started reading this thread, looked at the entry in the Data Tracker
for the draft and though 'Bet Flo D. is Flo Driscoll and Michael P. Is
Michael Parsons'.

Then went to the draft and found I was right because they have both given

Yes, there are some folk who participate in IETF under an alias and some
folk who have interesting personal security concerns. But this isn't one of
them.
