Re: [Detnet] Implementing the discussion at IETF 97 on architecture doc

Hello Lou:

Did  section 3 evolve since the publication in September? Will there be an 01 of the dp alt draft before cutoff Monday?

Take care,

Pascal

Pascal,

    Another thing to consider bringing into the Architecture document are some of the diagrams and related text from Section 3 of 	.  I think the whole section, with the exception of the last two paragraphs on page 5, is good text to bring over.

The above is not, as far as I understand, aligned with the DT progress. To get around the chicken-egg thing here either defer documenting for now or emphasize more that the above is an example.
