Re: Discussion on draft-mjsraman-rtgwg-inter-as-psp-03

Dear Eric,

Here is an attempt that we made to get this draft and a few others entered
for consideration in the IRTF.

Tony Li responded as follows...

So, the first question is whether or not this counts as research or
engineering.  Glancing at it, it looks to me like you're on the engineering
side of the world.  It would then make sense to spark an email discussion
on the rtgwg mailing list.

You have on the other hand branded this as research.

Is there a different picture IRTF and IETF see or is it a question of
subjectivity ?

Your opinion would be most useful.

thanks and regards,
balaji venkat
