Hi Yoshi,

I agree.  We only really need to fully understand what the key differences are between the different approaches, right now, so we can make an informed choice.

I continue to believe, as I said in Vancouver, that _all_ of the approaches we are discussing are reasonable approaches that _will work_.  They all use the same underlying security mechanism (EAP), and they are far more alike than different because of that.  We just have to decide which way of using EAP is best for our needs, and fully specify it.
