Good idea, let's use SPF, it's widely accepted, and it has a
certain fun factor.

You wrote this Tue, 21 Sep 2004 13:15:58 -0400.  Apparently
the area directors failed to inform the co-chairs about their
plans to close MARID.  They also failed to discuss this idea
with the WG as outlined in BCP 25 chapter 4.  What else went
