### Speaking as a working group participant. I'm not sure this is work that is a great fit for GROW. Since the work appears to be about a private airplane control traffic network operating as an overlay, I'd liken the work more to SCADA related work than Internet related projects. The fact that these planes fly around the world (global), and BGP is used (routing), doesn't necessarily make it a GROW item. You've indicated that ATN/IPS may not even be using the Internet as underlay. I've given some thought to what would maybe be better working group. And, in all seriousness, I think the Internet-Of-Things side of IETF may be better. It is perhaps unconventional to liken a large item such as an airplane to what we often consider "Things" in the IoT-context such as mediaplayers, light bulbs, etc - but given the constraints you mentioned in your emails (BGP is too much protocol overhead etc) the airplanes really seems just "very large things" in IoT context. Have you considered one of the following groups? https://datatracker.ietf.org/rg/t2trg/about/ ('low-resource nodes ("things", "constrained nodes") can communicate among themselves and with the wider Internet') https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/detnet/about/ ('engine control systems, and other general industrial and vehicular applications') I don't have access to a lot of airplanes, so I think it would be hard for me to contribute in a meaningful way. ### (with co-chair hat on) If GROW participants are interested in draft-templin-atn-bgp-06.txt, please speak up now. If there is interest, we'll try to make it fit in the IETF 101 agenda.
