Dear IPsec-heads,

RFC 5996 - IKEv2-bis, is a major accomplishment of this community.

I would like to thank the authors: Charlie, Paul, Yoav and Pasi for a great deal of time and effort that went into polishing this document. And to thank the many people on this mailing list who participated in hundreds of discussion threads leading to this point.

I am sure even RFC 5996 is not perfect, but we are all due some congratulations today!

Thanks,
        Yaron
