COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know if a WG is the perfect way to achieve the required outcome, but
that was the consensus decision of the gendispatch process and the idea of
punting this issue to the RFC editor was discussed and dismissed.  We have been
discussing this for at least 9 months, and I think that changing tack and
starting down a different path now will not go anywhere useful.  I.e., perfect
is the enemy of good.

I also believe that most IETF participants wish to focus on producing technical
standards, and are happy to use language that doesn't accidentally cause
offense, and are either supportive or agnostic to the IETF providing guidance
on what language should be used.

I hope that the members of the community who have concerns work constructively
to try and find a consensus position within the TERM WG.

I support the chartering of this WG.
