Pekka While it is clear your distaste for RSVP, you haven't stated anything other than handwave why RSVP is so bad ("in the first place"). You mention there were mistakes and a BB will fix them, but you don't list a set of mistakes RSVP made for folks to digest. I don't know if you think they ar

The information about the mbox format being anecdotally defined is incorrect. The mbox format has traditionally been documented in the binmail(1) or mail.local(8) man pages (BSD UNIX derivatives) or mail(1) man page (UNIX System 3/5/III/V derivatives). There have been several variants of the mb

I question the usefulness of path-coupled signalling beyond a certain point in the network. Dean Anderson voiced them pretty well in the original thread about RSVP -- it just doesn't seem to make any sense beyond a very closed environment (like the first hop) -- and in that case, you should be abl
