Re: Draft minutes of ripe22-dnswg

    Would you please identify yourself??! I have rather bad
    feelings about having to follow a discussion where one
    part is a ghost named "hostmaster".
The NL Naming Authority is not a ghost, but a *function*.
And it doesn't really matter who in a particular case is
speaking on behalf of the NL Naming Authority: the official
e-mail address hostmaster@localhost is linked to the function
and is always used in the From: field when the message is an
official message/reply/statement by the NL Naming Authority.
Like in this case. Besides, the standards require that when
the From: line differs from the e-mail address of the person
who sent the mail, a Sender: line be present. And that's the
case in all mails with hostmaster@localhost in the From: line.
That's what we call "implicit identification".
