Thanks, Jo, put on the reading list, probably have to add it to inspiration
section.
Indeed, i am sure that a lot of the ideas i put together into my draft
have individually been brought up in research in various forms, but this
research was not brought to IETF and the painfull process of reworking/adjusting
to make it become useful for the industry (like e.g.: SPRING did it 30 years
after the idea of source routin was first brought up).
The main problem to mee seems to coalesce enough business valuable benefits
into a proposal better enough to beat the good enough most people seem
to think about what we have with IPv6. Better serving limited domains
such as SP cores, industrial and IoT networks seems like the best starting
point IMHO. But of course the main issue is to create host stacks where
using other than global-scope IPv6 addresses can be done.
Cheers
Toerless
