Shortly before the previous RRG meeting in Dublin, I had proposed a
new
host stack architecture as one step towards solving the routing

between hostnames and IP addresses from its current position at the
application layer down to the IP layer. Applications and transport
protocols would thus exclusively work with hostnames, and IP addresses
would be dealt with only at the IP layer. I would like to let the
group
and the program committee know that I am now working on a concept
paper
describing this new stack architecture in more detail, and that I
would
like to present this at the RRG meeting in Minneapolis. [...]
Dear program committee and RRG folks,
finally, here is a link to the concept paper on the new hostname-
oriented
host stack architecture, which I described in earlier emails:

I am very interested in your opinion about it.
