[rrg] belated msg: further description of the recommendation process

[Lixia Zhang <[e-mail]>]

sorry folks, day job crisis delayed this msg for a few days.

Tony and I have had some discussions on how to collect the  
recommendation document.  One comment we have heard repeated from a  
number of people is that our recommendation should document the pros  
and cons of different approaches, which can be very valuable, even  
independent from whichever specific recommendations we may end up with.

1/ To steer efforts toward that goal, we would like each proposal to  
make a concise summary, preferably no longer than ~1000 words (it may  
contain pointer to more detailed document), that describes the key  
ideas of the proposal of exactly how it addresses routing scalability  
issue, where is its cost, and where is its gain.

Given this message is getting out late, we would like to extend the  
submission time from 12/15 to 12/22, before people drift away from  
work to holidays (scream now if it does not work for some reason)

2/ with the above, we start contrast and compare proposals with each  
other.
We need to summarize the outcome of this step into a short document of  
the pros and cons for each proposal.

Tony, please help add things that I may have lost from memory

PS; it is top on my todo list to get all the step-forward proposals on  
RRG wiki. this weekend.
