Will there be potentially be an RFC anytime soon? Hi Mirja,
this is an interesting question. It is not yet a WG document and the last time I asked for WG adoption, the question by the chairs was who would the consumer of the document be? A lot of people involved in implementing this in FreeBSD, the ns-2 and the INET simulator are already co-authors. I tried to get some support for stack vendors, but none of them wanted to make statements about future products. If there is a chance to progress this in TSVWG as a WG document, we would be interested, but I don't see why I should get a different answer when asking the same question again without having a relevant list of some "consumers" of the potential RFC.
