Re: [yaco-liaison-tool] From Field in Liaison Tool

[Alexa Morris <[e-mail]>]

Hi Emilio,

Makes sense. Unfortunately, I think this is going to pose a real  
problem for us. IETF Secretariat is not leadership, we just upload  
liaisons on behalf of them on occasion. Stephanie (or any other member  
of the Secretariat team) should not be listed as a submitter. To use a  
somewhat flawed comparison, that would be a bit like giving the  
postman credit for the nice Christmas card that your friend wrote you.

Until we can determine how to address this, we are going to revert to  
using the old tool.

Thanks,
Alexa
