But: Appeals are generally taken against final decisions rather than just hanging there loose to be applied against something that might not actually have had a formal appraisal and decision. WRT to "protect its own" - if there's a problem that has enough consensus of a need for resolution, and the IAB or IESG does not take action, then you address it at the next Nomcom cycle and remove not only the problem child, but the folks that didn't act. But I'd be surprised if we end up with that result. I don't always get along with the leadership and some actions they've taken over the years annoy the hell out of me, but for the most part I consider them honorable and generally good fiduciaries of the IETF process. > b) On the flip side, there's also some risk that an IESG would seek to > marginalize a lone voice within its ranks that argued for sanity > against a widely-accepted madness, and use the expulsion process as a > way to silence that individual.

In such > a case, review by the current nomcom might be appropriate. There are a few ways of dealing with this - either have a second body confirm the expulsion - or - my preference - make the expulsion appealable and use normal appeals process to act as a check and balance. I don't think it's an unsolvable problem. > > All of this is tricky to get right though, and we could easily end up > with worse (e.g. more easily gamed) than what we have now. To be blunt - I think the "easy to game" argument is a red herring in all its forms, such argument only given some small amount of life based on the actual black and white text of the recall process and vivid imaginations. A bigger problem - IMHO - is the ridiculous amount of time it would take to process the recall after the petition is certified. I neither think it would be difficult to got 20 signatures using the current criteria for something sufficiently serious for a recall, nor would the IETF fall for any of the various permutations of sock puppets and trolling and DOS attacks we've discussed in this and other related threads.
