More limited, that's the point. Not perfect, but better than unregulated anarchy. However, between a network design that does not meet RFPs (and therefore does not get implemented) and anarchy, I pick anarchy, especially when I'm not the one dealing with it later. This community designs protocols to please code developers and protocol designers. If it designed protocols with users in mind maybe less dumb things would happen because dumb users would not have to do dumb hacks to make things work. > But look.

This requires teamwork and what we have today is a bunch of people entrenched in their positions and unwilling to compromise. If you want better tooling, why don't you talk to the whiners that want to have the cake and eat the cake? You know, the same kind of people that wrote a "real" operating system or designed a "real" router that managed to capture 0.5% of the market but of course is better than the implementation that captured 75% of the market. Maybe if these people had compromised instead of digging their heels they would not be whining about proprietary implementations. > The tools need to set expectations, and perhaps some > of the DHCP prefix delegation code can help here. Care to explain? Michel.
