so... more coffee and a lunch later... I did forget to say that as near as I can tell, or from my prospective, the drum of 'why arent more ops folks at ietf' has gotten better over the last while (3-4 years which is as long as I've been able to pay attention so far). The drum of 'but we never get what we want out of the ietf!!' from ops folks also has gotten better. My note prompted at least (so far) one private note that reminded me that yelling sometimes doesnt' get what I want :( In general the process/outcome from IETF (for v6 things) has gotten better not worse, some bumps still to iron out though (which is expected). -chris -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
