Re: [dispatch] VIPR - proposed charter version 3

Hi Dan,

One of the starting points for this work is that more centralized
solutions to this problem have been defined (and implemented), yet
they have not been successful.  Per one of Christer's earllier
comments, we will add some text with reference to such and thus
substantiate why this group is focusing on a p2p based solution.

Thanks,
Mary.
