Re: [Idr] draft-head-idr-bgp-ls-isis-fr-01 - WG adoption call (6/6 to 6/20)

[Robert Raszuk <[e-mail]>]

Tony,

Yes - let's keep adding to BGP stuff which does not belong there and
continue to keep crying how BGP is slow and how BGP  interdomain
convergence takes minutes for full table.

Why do we need the Internet at all ? After all - you never sold anything to
"The Internet".

Let me ask you a question - Did you ever presented to customers an
alternative to BGP-LS ? Did you demo it ? Did you discuss pros and cons?

With such myopic view we can sit and watch how this train which left years
ago goes slower and slower ..

Or maybe this is after all good news ... I am sure inventors of SCION can
be super happy to see such growing abuse of BGP to be happening in IETF
over and over again.

Cheers,
R.
