You clearly don't understand the concept of KISS and prefer to call people 
stupid because of that… Pathetic.

And Cisco is doing exactly the same. I'm just happy that finally someone is 
standing up to Cisco in this. I *know* the SRv6+ people have suggested working 
on interop. Cisco is the one who refused! So don't come to me with this "IETF 
mission is to make sure you have interoperable services" BS.

No. And that is why I want SRv6+ to move forward, to avoid getting trapped in 
the SRv6 walled garden.

I don't care which vendor is behind which proposal. I don't want to get trapped 
into one vendor's way of thinking. Especially if I don't like that way of 
thinking. I want to have choice. If SRv6+ is successful it will be implemented 
by many vendors. A lot of them are still on the fence whether to support SRv6, 
SRv6+ or both. Let the operators decide what we like best, instead of 
manipulating the IETF to push a single solution down our throats.

Cheers,
Sander
