Hi David, We do need to clarify what is meant by an application. I would not expect that real user-land applications would talk directly to routing devices via IRS. I can see that going through an intermediary. The IRS abstractions are unlikely to be as high-level as user-land applications would want and the security and policy issues would get exciting. Clarifying what applications are more in-scope initially is part of where use-cases will help. Can you write up ones to categorize/describe your thoughts?
