To qualify for protection, an industrial design must be aesthetic, and I believe that elegant design should be one of our goals in protocol design. However, industrial designs are divorced from all technical aspects of the article, and thus at least some small portion of our ongoing work may be

I think this is a good and much-needed document. Thanks to the authors and whoever else contributed to it. The title and the abstract starts reading like a general AAA key management guideline, but later the document gets too EAP-specific. Is the intent to provide general guidelines that should

Yaakov - Did you cut that from Nolo's site - they are good people. My argument is that the negotiation of the protocol inside the IETF's vetting process is identical to two engineers arguing and then coming to a new aesthetic implementation, its the new fenders for the truck., or a new warning

Hey Ted - the more I thought about this post of yours the more it annoyed me. You see - when a WG chair doesn't want someone saying something in their WG and they control the number of players in that WG, they will always control the consensus such as it is. The point is that there is no where to

Yes actually you do -how does anyone complained against know who is complaining or why? - if the complaints are not public then the oversight is not real - its a paper fiction - a lie in print. Speaking of lies in print this is why IETF complaints are addressed and penalties for them assessed
