Hi,

Sorry for being a bit late to this discussion (day job and other realities intruding), but having had a small role in the Dublin BOF, I don't think it likely (in the extreme) there would be significant benefit from having a second BOF. I'd like to second Dave's seconding of Brain's statement:

          But I don't see the point in a second BOF; the idea
          that a BOF could resolve in a couple of hours the
          issues that the RRG has been discussing since early
          2007 seems unlikely.

I'd actually go a bit further and suggest that any attempt by any group to resolve the issues the RRG has been discussing (or any of the various other discussions that occurred prior to RRG taking this on) as a pre-requisite for creating a working group to standardize an experimental protocol in this space would be equivalent to declaring no protocol in this space will _ever_ be standardized.

LISP is _an_ approach towards routing scalability. It is not the only one. Standardizing the experimental protocol would allow folks interested in routing scalability to explore one or two axes of the possible solution space. To be honest, I'm unclear as to why there is even a question as to whether a WG should be created...

Regards,
-drc
