I know you have had another solutions in mind since the beginning of time, but many of us have found RFC5050 and some of the other work done in the DTNRG to offer useful solutions to our communications requirements. And building on the IETF tradition that, for the most part, the IETF works on protocols and the market decides which it wants to use, I think taking the work of the DTNRG and the expereince that many of us having using that protocols and turning some of it into production worthy protocols is a really good idea. Then the world can decide whether they want to use them or not. As I missed the initial announcement, I am glad you pointed it out, as I just subscribed and am in general support the idea of a proposal for a DTNWG. thanks avri
