Dear Paul,

Let phrase the world process a little differently if you so desire.
There are the clients and the vendors/providers. Those who want the
Internet to "work better", know 5,500 RFCs, and publish a few
standards a decade; and those people who want the internet "to work,
period", bear the costs, and only know their needs by their own daily
standards.

So, don't tease. Let us try to make them/us cooperate. As you may
recall some of us (the people) are no more allowed to participate in
this RFC 2026 over delayed Internet process of yours.

No offence taken. Best!
