Turns out you were right about this... The fifth draft is now available at http://bill.herrin.us/network/rrgarchitectures.html Major changes include: Strategy H is folded in to strategy B as variant B1c. Original strategy B is B1a. Anja's loose source routes (from HAIR) is now B1b. So, here's my master plan. I'm playing it by ear so this can still change, but this is what I'm thinking: Step 1. Where we are right now. In step 1, I'll make additions based on this criteria: You propose something architecturally different than what's already there and I understand it well enough to form a mental picture of how that would work. I don't have to agree; I just have to understand. If I can get to a draft where there are only cosmetic changes from the last one, I'm going to "close" the document to additions. I put close in quotes because if something genuinely different and obviously valid comes along I'll still add it but that'll be it for anything more minor. Step 2. I ask each of you to propose eliminating one or more of the strategies or variants on the grounds that they are in some way unworthy of further attention. If I get a strong consensus (meaning lots of you say yes and no more than a couple say no) then I'll remove that strategy. Step 3. I'll ask for weak consensus on forming IETF working groups to pursue specific strategy variants. Weak consensus means lots have something to say and more agree than disagree. I'll mark them accordingly in the document. My hunch is that two or three will pass this hurdle, but we'll see when the time comes. Step 4. I'll reformat the draft as an I-D and offer it to the group as Bill Herrin's recommendation. I'll propose that it become the RRG's recommendation to the IETF and be published as an informational RFC. Beyond that, it's in your hands. If you find some other, better basis for forming a consensus recommendation, great. If not, well, it'll be your call. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
