The volume of e-mails can be mitigated by sending more consolidated answers (that cover several points discussed recently) and avoiding recycling arguments. It's of little use to bring the same issues over and over again, be it with different or the same people. It doesn't matter if someone didn't "get it", you don't have to convince him individually that you're right as that will have a near null effect on the outcome of the RFC. In my opinion, one of the problems with these RFC threads is that the proposers are busy retorting over and over again instead of just collecting the objections and address them either by changing the proposal or responding *once* in a well thought-out manner. That objection and a short response should also be included in the RFC to avoid it being brought up again. -- Gustavo Lopes
