Nobody else expressed any interest in this, so I kind of dropped the idea.

Hi Mikael,

Any operator nibbles on making this meeting happen?

I'm not sure how useful I can be, but if there's any network
operators reading, I would love to hear the questions and
concerns from your side, and I'm happy to explain anything
I can help explain.

(Of course if it's just going to be vendors and/or implementors
getting together to agree ECN is a good idea, we might as well
bring plenty of beer...)

In my testing, FIFO with RED was already huge improvement over just plain 
FIFO.

Configuring 1GE shaping with FIFO yielded 100ms buffering just by naive 
configuration, adding one line of random-detect config brought this down 
to 10-15ms without any loss of actual throughput.

Btw, I reached out to some people here at the BBF about doing
anti-bufferbloat in this context and getting this into the documents, and
there is no reason why this can't be introduced.

Now, the proposal needs to be "reasonable" and implementable, so if
someone would be interested in work like that I'd like to hear from you. I
have taken initiative in trying to come up with configuration guidance for
operators for their existing equipment, and that could be a way forward.

...

I'll be at the IETF meeting monday-friday coming week, can we set up a
meeting with some interested parties and actually have a "how do we get
this into networks" kind of meeting. It would not be "my mechanism is
better than yours" meeting, I'm not interested in that in this context.

Heated agreement from over here, despite my preference for flow isolation.  
Plain old AQM can be orders of magnitude better than a dumb FIFO.

I'm interested in "what can we do to improve the situation in the next 1-2 
years including installed base".

This seems like a useful idea to me.

I guess based on Apple's observations[1], we know there's at least
one network in France and at least one in the Argentina that has
rolled this out at some scale.

Does anyone know which networks these are and maybe have contacts
there?  Maybe someone could find out what they did and write up a
case study?

I agree even getting some regular basic CE-marking stuff deployed
would probably be really cool if it can be done sanely.
