I seem to recall raising the issue in a plenary. At no time was I aware that
the plenary was the decision maker for the issue in question.

This was I believe because of your reply 'There is a process", I remember
that
part of the reply because you neglected to say what the process was.

So here we are in this forum and I find out that oh, the plenary was the
decision making body!


The only other plenary where I was present at which the issue was raised I
raised it with Jon Postel who stated that he was not opposed in principle
but did have a series of issues that needed to be met first which we could
discuss offline. We were exchanging email on the subject just before Jon
passed away.


If the plenary is a decision making body as you are implying then why does
it keep no minutes?

It is possible that Harald is correct in his assertion, but I find no 
record in the minutes because there arn't any.
