Formal Objections receive Director consideration.
The word “objection” used alone has ordinary English connotations.

[=Formal Objections=] <em class=rfc2119>may</em> be registered against any
[=Chair Decision=],
[=Group decision=],
[=W3C Decision=],
or decision of the [=Director=], [=CEO=], or [=Team=]
within the scope of this Process,
except those for which an alternative specific means of appeal
(such as [=Advisory Committee Appeal=] or <a href="#SubmissionNo">Submission Appeal</a>)
is indicated.
However, individuals <em rfc=2119>should</em> first seek to resolve their issues
through dialogue,
and attempt to find <a lt=consensus>consensual</a> solutions.

An individual who registers a [=Formal Objection=] <em class="rfc2119">should</em> cite technical arguments
and propose changes that would remove the [=Formal Objection=];
these proposals <em class="rfc2119">may</em> be vague or incomplete.
