That is an entirely separate issue. I agree that it is important and needs to be resolved, but the Technical Committee is the wrong place to be designing this policy. We must (by 6.3.5) not engage in design of new proposals and policies. Yes, as individuals, we may choose to collaborate with others on the development of a suitable policy, and that group may well decide that they cannot reach a consensus and bring the issue back to the Technical Committee for advice. Please stop trying to bypass the constitutional process for policy design. -- keith.packard@intel.com
