Re: [Ltru] Possible RFC 3683 PR-action

Very acceptable.

(Myself, I tend to blacklist the person involved in my email client as soon as identified -- but of course that still leaves random clutter in the archives.)

Hi -

As co-chair...

It is suspected that someone whose posting privileges to the ltru at ietf.org
mailing list were revoked pursuant to an RFC 3683 PR-action has been
posting to the WG mailing list under one or more pseudonyms.  While
RFC 3683 recognizes the possibility of such misbehavior, it does not
prescribe a means of determining when such a situation exists.  As
suggested by our area director, we propose the following metric:

1. All chairs and the responsible area director agree that the identified
email address is the person subject to a PR action.

2. At least one independent participant of the list is informed that a
suspected violation of a PR action is in progress without being informed of
the suspect posting address or addresses.  That participant must
independently identify the same posting address or addresses as the WG
chairs & AD.

The list should be informed when the metric is applied.

Of course, this action would be subject to the usual appeal process.

We'd like to get a read on whether the working group feels this would be
adequate.  I understand "independent participants" in our context as list
subscribers (other than the chairs, ADs, and editors) who give some
indication (such as recent postings) that would indicate that they are
actually reading the list.  Martin and I think consulting three such
participants should provide an adequate degree of confidence that the
corrent address(es) have been identified, since that would mean that
a total of six people have all come to the same conclusion about what
postings were in question and who the poster might be.

Please respond to the ltru at ietf.org list indicating whether you find
this to be an acceptiable approach.

Randy
