Also, it would help if instead of FUD-mongering, you actually went to Claus (or asked somebody else to) with *specific suggestions* of how to improve the process. He may be stubborn about the way he does things, but if you include specific changes, and show how those changes make *visible* improvements to the product, he'll listen. (visible improvements - saying "It Would Be Nice If" doesn't cut it. On the other hand, replacing the IWBNI with "If X were done, then the security community would be able to do Y, and the network operations community could do Z, with benefits A, B, and C" - now *that* might get some traction...)
No offense Valdis, you know I both like you and consider you a friend, but if you (sendmail) can't take the heat and/or stand up to the task of being International Infrastructure, step down. This isn't about processes, it's about something that has been around for a while, many reply on and keeps ******* up. Where it simply can't. Gadi.
