[dccp] Soliciting input on UDP encapsulation for DCCP

[Pasi Sarolahti]

Hello,

During the Hiroshima meeting last week some support (and some  
concerns) was voiced about working on UDP encapsulation for DCCP, with  
a suggestion to allocate an UDP port to be used for DCCP  
encapsulation. To make this happen, it was proposed that we bring back  
draft-phelan-dccp-natencap, for the WG to submit it for Experimental  
RFC. Tom has now updated the draft and the refreshed version can be  
found at http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-phelan-dccp-natencap-03

With the above background in mind, I'm now looking for input on the  
following questions:

a) in your opinion, should the DCCP WG start working on UDP  
encapsulation for DCCP?
b) if yes, do you think draft-phelan-dccp-natencap is a good starting  
point for this, and therefore should become a WG document?

In addition, please speak up if you have other technical comments  
about the draft.

Thanks!
