Re: [nwcrg] [LOOPS] BOF co-chairs thinking on LOOPS next steps

[Marie-Jose Montpetit <[e-mail]>]

Adding the nwcrg list to list thread. And with my NWCRG co-chair hat on.

Like I mentioned the WIFI to node hop was one of the original successes of
network coding as Prof. Médard and her team can attest to. A lot of the
LOOPS use cases for per hop network optimization have been not only
*researched* but *implemented* with running code by many of the nwcrg
participants.

NWCRG-ites; there was a LOOPS BOF on Monday to address the issues of
performance in multiple hop networks and Carsten is pointing to the related
material.

Hi Marie-José,

details of the thinking that was developed in the side meetings that
happened at the previous two IETF meetings can be found at

https://github.com/loops-wg/charter

The BOF actually added one piece of information I didn’t previously
perceive that way:
People seem to really want to tackle the host-to-node case (as needed,
e.g., for going through WiFi access clouds) right away, not just the
in-network (node-to-node) case. That would be the one thing I would change
based on my recollection of the BOF. But of course there may be other
things; it may be worth to now have another round of discussion of the
proposed charter.
