I personally am happy that Henning Schulzrinne is pushing for this. However, it should be remembered that the Commissioners rule the day at the FCC. I hope he doesn't suffer what the Spectrum Policy Task Force at the FCC suffered when I was one of the many people who was involved. Let's just say a lot of staffers at the FCC were forced to leave because they dared to focus on technology "third rails".

The IETF IAB plenary last Wednesday had a presenter from the FCC, who claimed to care about latency in response to my question. I don't claim it's a good use of your time to listen to these, but probably having the links in the archive is useful. http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/85/slides/slides-85-iesg-opsandtech-6 http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/85/slides/slides-85-iesg-opsandtech-7 http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/85/slides/slides-85-iesg-opsandtech-8 http://ietf85.conf.meetecho.com/index.php/Recorded_Sessions http://recordings.conf.meetecho.com/Recordings/watch.jsp?recording=IETF85_PLENARY&chapter=part_11 5. Technical Topic: Measurement Issues in the Internet Moderator: Alissa Cooper Speakers: Sam Crawford and Henning Schulzrinne Although network performance measurement has been a topic of research, standardization, and development for decades, recent efforts to create national, regional, and global access network measurement testbeds and frameworks are drawing renewed interest. These efforts seek to provide consistent measurements of fine-grained performance metrics such as packet loss, delay, and throughput, as well as higher order tests to capture quality of experience with respect to specific applications and services. Some standardized metrics and tests exist, including those developed in the IPPM WG, but a unified framework for observing and reporting the quality metrics that define users experiences across different networks has yet to be developed. This plenary will examine the implications of large-scale network performance measurement for the Internet by exploring the approaches, results, and challenges involved with measurement efforts from around the world. -- Michael Richardson <[email protected]>, Sandelman Software Works _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
