I respect the IETF view regarding text postings. Minutes are typically
quite long and may have embedded tables, lists or charts. Exported
text can become garbled and it's a burden on the secretary to correct
by hand.
What I find curious is why we stick with PDF rather than HTML. I would
expect the IETF to agree that, if you don't have access to a browser
you may be considered a threat to society these days ;-)
