The working group might be the closest and could reasonably have the highest 
sense of frustration -- Pete's later posting notwithstanding -- but forgive my 
noting that they are not the main victims.

Variously the IETF and the Internet community are the main victims.  The IETF 
for the rather sustained violation of its policies and the Internet community 
for the delay in being able to use a mechanism that presumably would be useful.

Somehow, an apology does not seem sufficient.  Something more substantial is 
warranted.
