I imagine you could create LISP-ALT RFCs by the end of 2010 and
have interoperable implementations in software and in some
hardware routers by the end of 2011.
Writing RFCs is probably the first 10% to completion.
You know how long it takes for multiple vendor implementations to get
released, documentation to be complete and accurate? And then the long
evaluation cycle for deployment and then what you learn through this
process needs to be fed back in. And sometimes you have to restart
some of these steps?
Of course we don't want to rush, but never assume we have time.
Did we assume we had time for Dual-Stack deployment so when IPv6-only
sites get deployed (which might possibly happen in the next year or
so), we could have IPv6 in the infrastructure? We missed that boat and
we are in a heap of trouble now. Sad.
