I would like to point out that the 1822 protocol is 100% AMERICAN in it's origin - not all this X.* stuff that is partly responsible for the burgeoning US trade deficit. Did you know that X.25 was developed in the same year that the fluoridation of our water supply began? Do I really need to connect the dots together for everyone?
I think RFC 802 should not be deprecated until RFC 877 is also deprecated. Otherwise we are taking actions that only undercut the competitiveness of Internet technologies vv their ISO equivalents. What is coming next? Has CLNP been deprecated by the ISO yet? This is a slippery slope that could yield all kinds of bad outcomes.
As the takeover of Internet governance by the UN is being debated, this just adds impetus for them to now argue to try and resurrect CLNP and TP4 and their follow travelers and impose them on the world by force. We should never underestimate the threat posed by the OSI suite. It can come back up like a bad piece of sushi if we are not careful here.
I urge you to reconsider this move.
Thanks! ( :) )
Milo
