"It's perfectly appropriate to be upset.  I thought of it in a slightly
different way--like a space that we were exploring and, in the early
days, we figured out this consistent path through the space: IP, TCP,
and so on.  What's been happening over the last few years is that the
IETF is filling the rest of the space with every alternative approach,
not necessarily any better.  Every possible alternative is now being
written down.  And it's not useful."  -- Jon Postel
