OK, Jim, here's agreement with Perry. I feel the same way. I didn't
realise that any more than one person needed to say it.
Oh, and I saw a message from Ted Ts'o saying the same. Multiple hands
clapping.

Perry is more attentive to replying to email than I am, particularly
when I'm writing code, so he has a tendency to be the frontrunner.
But you can rest assured, Mr Bound, that textual diarrhea is not one of
Perry's problems. It is certain "opponents" that have spammed multiple
lists, not Perry.
The IPv6 Security formats have been completed for some time. They do
not include key management.
He and I and other have asked that IPv4 technical discourse, such as key
management, continue on the IPSec list.
Seems to me to be the pot calling the kettle black.
