The ipdecide BOF at Amsterdam IETF ================================== Title: IPng decision process Description: The goal of this BOF is to seek rough consensus on how to progress in the decision process about the next generation of IP. A set of decision criteria has been established (see Internet Draft draft-partridge-ipv7-criteria-01.txt) and the BOF will not re-discuss them. A set of four candidates for IPng has emerged (PIP, SIP, TP/IX, TUBA in alphabetical order) and the BOF will not discuss their details or merits. Very short term measures (CIDR) and very long term measures will not be discussed. While CIDR is most definitely not a candidate for the "IPng solution", I think catagorizing it as a "very short term measure" is misleading. There is reason to believe that deployment of CIDR (which already under way) will provide a sufficient short-to-medium term solution to the routing and addressing problem to forestall the need for IPng for some time. This is significant because some of the motivation to develop and deploy an IPng quickly appears to be driven by a false sense of panic or doom in the community. IMHO, it would be a serious mistake for the community to rush into picking a long-term IP successor based primarily on how rapidly it can be deployed rather than on the functionality it offers.
