All very true, but that does not stop us continuing discussions. Draft-12
is now published on the IETF site (though I don't think the announcement
appeared here). But I have already posted about it, and explained the
differences, here. It would be nice for members to respond, if only to say
"me too".
Likewise, discussion of the USEAGE draft (currently still only available
on the Landfield site) has started, but a little more comment would be
welcome (for OR against).
