Hi,
I would like to second Piotr's comment. Thank you for your hard work, and
for not quitting over anti-abuse.
As i read it consensus was not reached, and it's hard to dispute the
objections are not valid/admissible:
"
1) Nick Hilliard and Erik Bais commented that the effort and cost to
implement this proposal are too great in relations to the benefits that
are alleged.
2) Michele Neylon and Arash Naderpour commented that they oppose forcing
operators to use only email for
handling abuse reports and internal handling procedures should be solely
defined by the operator.
"
I just want to note that:
A) it's very hard to measure the benefits. some parties would see bigger
benefits than others.
B) converging abuse reports to email usage is a rule that is inexistent
*today*. people which are not worried about abuse, will likely want to
keep it that way... as a webform is an effective way of discouraging
reports.
At some point, people which discard abuse reports (or people which
simulate handling abuse reports) will not be able to run networks.
We're far from it, but if it gets to that point that will not be reached
through consensus, but probably through regulation.
Regards,
Carlos
