Re: [forces] RFC 5810 on Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) Protocol Specification

Wow, finally! Congratulations!!! I think I've stayed on this mailing list for as long as I did just to see if this day would finally come :-) and YOU DID IT!!!

Jamal, Joel, Weiming, Ram, Hormuzd, Avri, and all the others whom I have not seen for so long that I am not even sure that we would recognize each other any more - but I remember your good work in the good old days and here is a toast for you all!
