Maybe one of the underlying issues here is that one would normally expect one transport service as a single layer (i.e. protocol layer). But since this is not feasible in the current Internet, you get two protocol layers to offer a transport service you'd normally implement in a single one. i.e., for QUIC you need two protocols to implement a specific transport service. You use one transport protocol (UDP) that doesn't provide the service you want (but get the packets through), and then stack abother protocol on top of it, that does all that is missing. So I'd argue that it is correct that you can implement new transport *services*. However, the statement that you can deploy new transport *protocols* seems to be misleading (you're actually relying on a very simple transport protocol, and use its services as a building block for implementing a different transport service). This is what my original message tried to point out. -- Fernando Gont SI6 Networks e-mail: fgont@si6networks.com PGP Fingerprint: 6666 31C6 D484 63B2 8FB1 E3C4 AE25 0D55 1D4E 7492
