I believe it has now been demonstrated that the terms CEE and CES are 
being used by different people to mean different things.
That is even less useful than when I thought I knew what they meant.

Yours,
Joel

PS: The statement from Robin recently leads me to conclude that I don't 
even know what he means by the terms CEE, and CES.  And he coined them.
"The CES vs. CEE distinction does not arise from whether hosts are
altered or not.  It arises from the fundamentally different
mechanisms which are used by these two different types of
architecture to achieve scalable routing."
