Andrew,

I don't think this is about killing innovation. After all no one is saying
you can not use it in your network.

WG acceptance calls are evaluated in terms of WG rough consensu if
significant number of members of WG find a proposal useful and if they are
willing to work on it.

It seems clear that other then one vendor and very few individuals majority
of the WG members do not support the adoption.

I am not against CRH. But what I am against is that CRH/SRm6 authors
already bounced back via SPRING doors so they have chosen to try to enter
via 6man window. That is not proper style for any proposal.

Regards,
R.
