[TLS] Re: Notice of Moderation for Postings by D. J. Bernstein

[Alex C <[e-mail]>]

DANIEL fucking BERNSTEIN is banned from developing crypto 
protocols? IETF has jumped the shark.

I think this is my first post to the list, and I haven't been following 
it lately, but I can't see how the cited posts are disruptive. It 
appears there is an ongoing technical disagreement, but that by itself 
is not disruption, but rather a part of the normal consensus-forming 
process.

Is this about the copyright notice?
