I don't think we need 4 months to make this decision. Further, it seems very inconsistent to call an Interim meeting on this general solution space in order to speed convergence, and then turn around and give a very long meeting cycle as a deadline for what amounts to a relatively small piece of the overall solution space. - Mark > > Alain. > > > On Nov 29, 2011, at 10:31 AM, Rémi Després wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> Some IETF-82 participants have expressed wishes to pursue the work on 4rd-U.
