and then you go on to make a point that agrees with OP, pointing out that IETF members are very mature engineers that are trying to solve hard problems.
- tptacek 11y agoNo. You've misread me. I do not like the IETF, and feel like even though there are lots of well-intentioned and highly-competent engineers working within it, its process and current overall membership produces results that are sometimes indistinguishable from "immature hobbyists". Specifically, I think the argument that the success of the modern Internet is evidence that the IETF is "mature" is dubious and worth debating. (Hey: just to be totally clear: I do not think the string "PRISM" is evidence of immaturity.)
