The solutions currently under study have many requirement&enhancement
to the CPE. So I think the document does not "deals only with
soltuions deployed within individual ISP networks" if not considering
the CPE as part of ISP network.

If  having "per-user state" is stateful, why "per session state" is
not stateful?

The concern that I have is: If we want to move forward, we need more
clear and strict definition of "stateless" and also need more
investigation before we give the conclusion that "stateless is
superior than stateful".

Thanks.
