I concur with StJohns. This is a better phrased way of saying the same
thing that I was trying to say.
If SUB-IP Area is to continue past March 2003, then its AD(s) need to be
appointed specifically for that by Nomcom (and ought not be responsible
for more than one area). If the IESG believes

I might as well chime in on the actual question that was asked.
I guess I disagree with the majority of folks working in the sub-IP area. I
never thought it made any sense to move all those working groups out of
their original areas into a sub-IP area, and I never understood the

Sure, but what about IP network correctness (e.g., security or congestion
control)?
Security isn't an IP issue; it's an IPsec

All the stuff in the sub-ip area is a combination of
applications running over IP and lower-layer services

all what do the MP stand for in MPLS?) runs.

so I can't offer direct feedback. However, in

Wouldn't it be nice if people based their feedback on facts, rather than on
