Dear all, as Aldo shared I will do my best to contribute on the suggestions I 
made at Singapore and perhaps go to Turin after Xmas to work with Aldo.

Right now I need to study all the background information to be at level first 
and I can’t prioritize this work for painful reasons.

Interestingly I note that an NSF is in fact another name for a middlebox and I 
like this approach which seems to be orthogonal to what others think I n IETF.

As I am as well the chairman of ITU-T SG17 WP3 there are perhaps other 
collaborations to consider too.
