What does make the former group more qualified than the latter to make a choice that would impact the Internet? Are they somehow expected to A) have better understanding in international patent law? B) possess considerable knowledge on existing video related patents worldwide? C) have better knowledge of video encoding mechanisms? D) possess Solomonic wisdom and capability to properly balance the WebRTC ecosystem? E) wield Psychic skills? F) represent 51% of the expected WebRTC population? I haven't seen any indication to that. What I have seen is an intention to ask frequent flyers and SMTP users to tell us what their favourite horse in the race is. > (with some kind of documentation) I don't think anyone has so far mentioned participation with documentation as part of the criteria. > in any of the venues > through which IETF operates and discusses the matter at hand. > > How else should someone's relevance for voting be determined? It can't be. It shouldn't be. That's why the IETF does not vote. > IETF > (historically) makes decisions via consensus at meetings and on e-mail > lists. Decisions via consensus are very, very different than opinion polls on a subject where lack of consensus has been demonstrated. If we can't reach consensus then we are in no position to mandate.
