> Dear All,

> I would like to have a meeting at the IETF (informal BOF?) discussing

arrange

the

> I hope the format will be something like:

> - Overview presentation of method

> - Collect issues that need to be addressed before going to a formal BOF.

> At this stage I would like to avoid discussion about how this compares to
> MidCom and other approaches - such as Rosenberg's - as I think it will
