I agree with Anoop.
We did find a healthy interest on 'arp-reduction' approach based on bang for the bucks.
Besides draft-shah-armd-arp-reduction predates draft-nachum-sarp...

On the other hand, if we are seeing a renewed interested in using
proxy ARP for DC stuff, and we start seeing additional submissions in
this space, maybe the IETF should do something rather than have a
bunch of individual submissions appear.

I think there was always interest in this problem.  There were several
solutions posted earlier (prior to ARMD being chartered), but since
the charter excluded solutions, all of the solutions went away.

We have at least 2 other proposals that I'm aware of:
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/armd/current/msg00176.html
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-shah-armd-arp-reduction

It is possible that some of the work on directory-based
address resolution/mapping will make having a solution
in this space less important, but how that pans out and
how well it scales, etc. is still to be seen.
