This might be a useful document, but it seems like it overlooks a few "elephants in the room":
1) lots of services use TCP or UDP because they want to work through NATs 2) lots of services do just fine with the services provided by TCP or UDP It would be useful to address those issues head-on. Otherwise, this really looks like a group that's looking under its own lamppost for solutions.
