Just to set the record straight, I did not decide to abandon it, and if the group would like to pursue IKE-over-TCP I am willing to continue as editor. As a vendor, though, I would much rather implement just one mechanism that would work for both IKEv1 and IKEv2, and there is a huge installed base of IKEv1 with fragments.
