consensus Call: TATWEEL

[Vint Cerf]

Mark,

what ever speculation there may be, my policy is not to take an  
adverse action unless a particular email address becomes a source of  
disruption that interferes with progress, wastes people's time, moves  
the discussion into unhelpful channels. So far, LB has not said  
anything that would merit such an action in my view. If that changes,  
I will consider the same action I have taken with Mr. Morfin.
