RE: US DOJ victim letter
Folks, I received a DoJ Victim Notification letter yesterday, which was pretty amazing considering the fact that I don't run a network. My letter referenced United States v. Menachem Youlus. I suspect that the letters that you guys received referenced a different case. Do I have that right?

RE: in defense of lisp (was: Anybody can participate in the IETF)
Scott, I am not so sure that Randy's suggestion can be dismissed out of hand. When we started down the path of locator/identifier separation, we did so because the separation of locators and identifiers might solve some real operational problems. We were not so interested in architectural purity. At this point, it might be interesting to do the following: - enumerate the operational problems solved by LISP - enumerate the subset of those problems also solved by RFC 6296 - execute a cost/benefit analysis on both solutions Ron -Original Message- From: Scott Brim [mailto:scott.b...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 10:39 AM To: Randy Bush Cc: North American Network Operators' Group Subject: Re: in defense of lisp (was: Anybody can participate in the IETF) On Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 10:09, Randy Bush ra...@psg.com wrote: btw, a litte birdie told me to take another look at 6296 IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation.

Cameron: As for ILNP, it's going to be difficult to get from where things are now to a world where ILNP is not just useless overhead. When you finally do, considering what it gives you, will the journey have been worth it? LISP apparently has more benefits, and NPT6 is so much easier -- particularly if you have rapid adaptation to apparent address changes, which many apps have and all mobile devices need already -- sorry but I don't think ILNP is going to make it. You can't just say the IETF should pay more attention. I've invited people to promote it and nobody stepped up. Scott
RE: Anybody can participate in the IETF (Was: Why is IPv6 broken?)
Leo, Maybe we can fix this by: a) bringing together larger groups of clueful operators in the IETF b) deciding which issues interest them c) showing up and being vocal as a group in protocol developing working groups To some degree, we already do this in the IETF OPS area, but judging by your comments, we don't do it nearly enough.

[snip] But there is no roadmap in the IETF process now for LISP that says We've got this 90% baked, we need to circulate a draft to the NANOG mailing list, request operator comments, and actively solicit operators to participate in the expanded test network. We need that mechanism to tell folks hey, it's real enough your operational feedback is now useful and come test our new idea. Leo, We need to fix this problem. Without the feedback loop that you describe, the IETF will never know whether they are producing useful stuff or nonsense. How does the following sound as a solution: Let's say we set up an new IETF mailing list, primarily for the use of operators. When an operator sees a draft that might be of interest to the operational community, he creates a new thread on the list, copying the draft authors and WG chairs. (The authors and chairs can decide whether to add the WG to the thread). The OPS AD will consider thread contents when evaluating the draft. Ron

Comments? There may be an OPS area, but it is not listened to. Witness the latest debacle with the attempt at trying to make 6to4 historic. Various non-practicing entities were able to derail what network operators largely supported. Since the IETF failed to make progress operators will do other things to stop 6to4 ( i have heard no over IPv4 transport, blackhole 6to4 anycast, decom relay routers...) Real network operators have a relatively low BS threshold, they have customers to support and businesses to run, and they don't have thumb wrestle these people who don't actually have any skin in the game.

RE: And so it ends (slightly off topic)
Folks, Somehow, it is appropriate that this should happen on February 3. On February 3, 1959, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and JP Richardson (aka The Big Bopper) died in a plane crash. Don McLean immortalized that day as The Day The Music Died in his 1971 hit, American Pie. Ron
