Being myself a native speaker of an Eastern-European dialect with way too many postalveolar fricatives, I will be grateful for additional guidance. > Perhaps I could suggest something in the vein of "very important" or > "much desired feature" This is not the notion that I tried to express, probably badly. It's not necessarily the important feature, it's the one that will make people implement and deploy the protocol stack in the first place. Long-term, the important feature of Homenet is having a clean architecture for multi-link IPv6 networks. From the point of view of the end-user, however, multiple layers of NAT work just as well, so it's not a "killer" feature. Short-term, the two visible features are support for multiple uplinks and support for wireless transit. No other protocol stack can do either of these without manual intervention, so these are Homenet's "killer" features. I agree that the term might not be familiar to everyone, and I would be sincerely grateful for help with expressing this notion concisely and without undue colloquialisms. > I found the term "bosses" leaving much to interpretation This happens to be deliberate. I am trying to avoid implying too much about the organisational structure to which the reader belongs -- the "boss" here could be the CIO, but it could be the leader of an Academic project, it could be the supervisor of the intern who's implementing Homenet, or it could be the Benevolent Dictator for Life of a Free Software project. If you find a sufficiently stately term that covers all of the above, I'll take it. (My thesaurus suggests "chieftain", but I tend to favour "foreman".) > or perhaps even "Corporate" used instead. Now you're trying to pick a fight ;-) -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
