-1. In the sense that stale lists really *can* hurt the normal IETF 
process. It's not for nothing that they are kept to a minimum.

At the same time, even as the kind of lurker that I am, it'd be sad to 
see the list go, especially when there's so much research level routing 
stuff out there. Starting with my two favourites, which are content/name 
based routing as a fundamental primitive, and how to model+push the data 
from current overlays into the primary routing fabric.
