"The ITU works in a formal, diplomatic style, suitable for international infrastructure and government representatives. The IETF works in an informal, casual style, suitable for innovation and creativity."

I think in that spirit we should be conservative when striving for technical strictness but liberal when writing April 1st RFCs, doing Scotch BoFs and tolerating unsual acknowledgement sections...

I support it.

thanks
