| Dear Jim,
|
| I note your request to move the work on the
| procedures project away from the main list.
|
| I do not really think this would solve any problem.
|
| 1. The procedures work should be the concern of the whole group.
| In my view voting members have an obligation to be involved
| in their development.
|
| 2. It does not address the signal to noise ratio of Jon's posts.
|
| 3. I assume you are receiving some complaints about
| Jon's contributions that I have not seen and are
| not public. I could only wish that they would
| devote their time reviewing and commenting on
| the Procedures Document instead.
|
| 4. I might be critical of the manner of many of Jon's posts,
| but he has undoubtedly contributed much to the procedures
| document. Certainly more than any of his detractors.

| Subj: Your Effort

|
| Matthew,
|
| Could I suggest you move the discussions on your procedures effort
| to the SUO-Policies@ieee.org list. That list was originally set up
| for the SUO Policies and Procedures Subgroup to discuss policies and
| procedures, so your effort would fit well there.
|
| Another option is to create a new list just for your effort.
|
| Jon is posting just far too many messages to the main SUO list.
| I can't begin to read them all, but I believe they are associated
| with your effort.
|
| If you can reach consensus amongst those who subscribe and follow
| your effort, you can bring back summaries to the full SUO list.
|
| Jim
