because bgp is way down there at the bottom of the stack and when it breaks, it can cause a great deal of trouble. We all know about the canonical bgp breakage incidents. I don't disagree with you, btw, but this is a binary decision based on fuzzy inputs, and this being an operational WG, expressing operational concerns is fine. It would be nice if we had some data on the issue. Nick _______________________________________________ GROW mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/grow
