Re: [Tools-discuss] Content at notes.ietf.org is not archival

["Joel M. Halpern" <[e-mail]>]

To amplify Michael's point and respond to a couple of others...

1) These are draft notes.  They are likely to be wrong.  If we archive 
them, we may be archiving information that is false to fact.  That is 
why chairs / WG Secretaries review minutes before posting, and then ask 
the WG to review them as well.   We should not expect the leadership to 
maintain two sets of accurate minutes.  So getting rid of the draft is good.

2) If folks want to use the tools for something else, great.  But that 
does not create an obligation on the IETF to make the tool behave 
differently.  If there is some other use case that is needed, either use 
some other tool, or convince the IETF that we need a tool to support the 
use case you have.

Yours,
Joel
