Re: #1400 Opinion poll - question draft

Thanks Simon for clarifying that. Again I want to raise the question that
has ***never*** been answered and that is "What rights does the IETF need to
process a standard submission through its process to issue that
Standard???" - what is the minimum set of rights needed to accomplish this.

That sets the baseline of the submission process I think and it allows the
IETF to operate. So what more is needed then beyond that set of minimum
rights for submissions.
