Ted or Ray or others more involved with Homenet, (I have not been) I've not fully read all of the 80+ messages in this thread over the past couple of days, but Paul's comment below (as well as Ralph Droms' comment the other day about code) made me wonder:
- Do we have any sense of whether people in the industry are going to implement these Homenet protocols in actual devices and operations? Have any large vendors committed to deploying the protocols? Software vendors? Hardware vendors? Or to put it another way - do we have businesses out there asking for these kind of solutions? Or who are we building it for? I ask in part because if the IETF did decide to go down the route of interacting with ICANN to make special exceptions in the root zone, these are exactly the kind of questions I could see people at ICANN asking. It would also speak to the timeframe question. If there are people clamoring for this functionality, that might raise its priority. Again, I've not been involved with the Homenet WG. I have a very basic understanding of the problem the WG is seeking to solve. But I'm not clear how large of a problem this is seen as within the larger industry. Thanks to anyone who can shed light on this, Dan > On Mar 23, 2017, at 2:13 PM, Paul Wouters <p...@nohats.ca> wrote: > > On Thu, 23 Mar 2017, Ray Bellis wrote: > >> On 23/03/2017 11:03, Paul Wouters wrote: >> >>> The phrase "more important" is pretty meaningless.
