[EAI] SUMMARY: Removal of Header-Format: marker

The responses to this consensus call are summarized as follows:

1. I agree with this resolution
Tony Finch
Bill McQuillan
Chris Newman
Yangwoo Ko
Kari Hurtta
Yao Jankang
John Klensin
Jeff Yeh
Kazunori Fujiwara
Yoshiro Yoneya
Randall Gellens
Frank Ellermann

2. I disagree with this resolution, for the following technical reasons:
Charles Lindsey - multiple reasons

3. I have another opinion, which is:

This issue is now settled. Further discussion is off-topic for the WG, 
unless new technical information can be brought to the table.

I would STRONGLY recommend that dissenting voices not attempt to reopen the 
issue without having checked with at least a few other particpiants that 
they will support reopening the issue based on that new technical 
information.
