Hi all,

Just a reminder that this thread, and Ian's comment that we're picking at,
predates the "Next steps for Multipath" email that Lars sent on November 20
[1].

There's levels of nuance here: a self-test experiment, interoperable
experiments in developer environments, experiments that emulate a
production-like deployment, experiments on in-situ production equipment,
and so on. Interest, ability and time in all of these levels is not
universal.

So my _personal_ take is that folks would like to establish confidence in a
multipath design, as if it were deployed in the production environment that
it is intended, before adopting it as a solution. We've seen before with
stream priorities that a rush to design a signalling mechanism, while
punting on scheduling, can result in defining something that is not
generally useful - the antithesis of standardisation. I think it's fine to
have the logical separation between signalling and scheduling but the
practical engineering reality is that they get deployed together.

Cheers
Lucas
