Ron,

That is clearly a possible outcome that the IETF could choose, and I would not disagree if that was the consensus position.

My main point was that a list discussion of this type rarely reaches an acceptable outcome, and that an objective discussion at IETF is normally a better approach. Indeed resolving issues like this is exactly why we meet F2F at IETF.
