Thanks for taking a look. I agree that as the draft stands, there is little motivation...see below...
One of the open questions on the slides I want to ask will be if we want to include the early motivating use cases, the other if we want to include some of the history of decisions made by the WG (both as appendices, most likely). Both have currently been removed from the document (decisions were in there, use-cases were in a previous, now expired draft, but had been up for incorporation into the draft in the past) pending WG opinion on the issues.The editors thoughts have gone back and forth a bit on this over the last few days, but I think we were now leaning toward including some decision history, and not the use cases, but perhaps this is a comment that you think it might be good to have at least some motivation via use cases included. The case you mention is one of the seminal use cases for P2PSIP from the early days, and we have all that earlier text, BTW, so if the group wants to include it, we certainly can. I know you won't be in Beijing, so your thoughts on those two issues would be good to hear. Oh, and good to hear from Rohan ;) Thanks, David (as individual) On Sun, Nov 7, 2010 at 7:06 AM, Cullen Jennings <[email protected]> wrote: > > I need to give this a detailed read at some point but I tried reading from > the point of view of what is it missing that would make it better more than > the point of view of did it get the details right.
