Hi Nishal

hi noah,

You are calling out Mark Elkins for tribal thinking, but you forget Mark Elkins has been in the DNS and DNS-Sec space for years and that tribe will support Elkins out of potential bias while he seeks support from the ZANOG tribe openly

you’re confusing potentially _earning the respect_ of the DNS community (which mark may have purportedly done), with, _an expectation_ based purely on citizenship..

seeking support, is fine. expecting it, is hubris.

you’re right; we have enough tribalism, and there’s no need to further that problem.

enjoy the weekend, -n.
