More the former than the latter. If I put myself in a position of making decisions for a company with large numbers of employees as to which tools to use, I find that it's a real dilemma. I can come up with good reasons to use almost any of these tools in specific cases, and at least defensible reasons for using some of these tools company-wide. (Though I often find that the people making these choices aren't aware of how much trouble they're creating for some of their employees who have to use the tools.) What I think it says is that the current set of tools available to industry basically suck, and part of the reason that they suck is that many of them try to force the users into particular ecosystems that paint their customers into corners and force them to use poor tools along with the good ones. IETF is in a slightly different position in that our worker bees choose us rather than the other way around, and IETF by its very nature needs to be open to broad participation. And what I think that implies is trying to let _everyone_ use their preferred tools as much as is feasible, even if we need some "bespoke" tools to facilitate that happening. > Which, perhaps, gets into your later point (that I trimmed, whoops) about > having standard interfaces as much as possible and letting people use their > own preferred tools to access them. Yes. Keith
