Hi,

As suggested by Terry Manderson during the last meeting, it is time for the WG 
to think to move away from the Internet Scalability issue and focus on the core
protocol technology. 

LISP has its merits, concerning routing scalability, proved by experimental work 
documented in the various RFC and drafts that the WG has produced so far. 
That work remains untouched. Yet, LISP provides advantages and benefits 
in contexts for which it has not been originally designed.

It would be worth for the WG to consider dropping the scalability aspects,
focus on the overlay technology itself, and possibly move the work
on standard track. 

If the WG decides to go that way, this will give the opportunity to re-work 
the core set of RFCs defining LISP, avoiding any reference to scalability,
and possibly enhancing the documents with the experience gathered so far.

Would be the WG in favour of such direction?

Joel & Luigi
