Sure, be happy to. My web site has a couple. You can poke around http://www.ionary.com/vis.html or just go to this article http://www.ionary.com/PSOC-MovingBeyondTCP.pdf for a summary of our RINA proposal and the motivations behind it. And from 2005, before we went public with PNA/RINA, I wrote this little phillipic about IPv6: http://www.ionary.com/ion-ipv6.html The Pouzin Society web site also has some material. > > > >>Just give us the spectrum.
