Dear,

Could the IETF mailing-list be moderated for off-topics comments ?

The board of trustee of the ISOC is international.
http://www.isoc.org/isoc/general/trustees/board.shtml

The joining of the IETF is open and major standard are coming from the
IETF and are created by people all over the world.

Limiting network by boundaries is like limiting software by patents.

Your opinion is your opinion, but please stop to use IETF as a media.

Alex
