I think I reached for it, but it's not a novel thing. We do this all of the
time.

For the rocky parts of the discussion: the people that give you the name
they use in real life and tell you that they work at the NSA are not the
ones to worry about. That's fair dealing, and we try to be open to
everyone, even when there are pretty serious philosophical disagreements.

I prefer publishing via ISE, since people are going to use this spec. But
Informational through the IETF is not something I would appeal. That is
because I favor publishing without delay, and even wrote an RFC about it. :)

thanks,
Rob
