Hello (if there is anybody? Has been quite silent recently.)

Recently we have been discussing (e.g. RRG process clarification
discussion) about how to classify different approaches.

Is there a "Transport" based proposal on the table? I know that Mark
Handly's work has been referred earlier, but is it really meeting the
design goals? Particularly I am curious to see how a transport (or a
solution that is in the end points) can possibly solve the routing
scalability problem that is in the core of the network. How is the
number of the routing entries going to be decreased with transport level
solution? I can clearly see that multihoming is be solved but not the
primary goal of scalability. Any thoughts? 

If there is not idea how the scalability is improved then it looks to me
that "transport" solutions are not addressing the problem space and we
can drop them at least until there is a proposal that also addresses the
scalability part.

Hannu
