        Right, this is RYF (Robust Yet Fragile) behavior...see
        the second Eugene NANOG t-shirt (the black one) :-)

        Not sure I follow. Of course we want to wind up with a
        solid ALT spec, but the charter states that "The working
        group will encourage and support interoperable LISP
        implementations as well as defining requirements for
        alternate mapping systems." IMO this admits the
        specification for other mapping systems. Good ideas
        always welcome.

        In any event, Brian really summed it up quite nicely:
 
          ...  
          But I don't see the point in a second BOF; the idea
          that a BOF could resolve in a couple of hours the
          issues that the RRG has been discussing since early
          2007 seems unlikely.
