At this point, I'm just going to disagree with this approach and move on with the current implementation of the CMA. What's needed is a service that provides IB connections using TCP/IP addressing. I don't believe this proposal meets this goal.
To meet the requirement of connecting over IB using TCP/IP addressing, I believe that we need a service with a reserved service identifier or range of identifiers, a mechanism for mapping between IP and IB addresses, and a mechanism for reversing the mapping.
I don't see where the proposal addresses the bulk of the work that's required, nor do I think that it will present an API to the user that does not expose IB related addressing (such as service IDs).
