Robert,

>> - is IETF right place to standardize it

This specific question is discussed in section 6 of the requirements
draft. Most cloud services use HTTP (web-services) today. Limitations of
HTTP for cloud services are described in section 8.
	
>> - if IETF does eventually publish something would that be accepted by
community (in particular open source one)

Let's not forget that providers need to differentiate their services
from one another. How will provider services be differentiated if
everyone uses the same open-source software stack? Add proprietary
extensions not published back to open-source?
	
Thanks, Ashish

Ashish,

I don't need to go past as I am not stuck :) I see how OS community 
progresses and I am also very heavily involved in IETF standardization 
process and I first hand see how it does not.

It is not the question if it would be nice to have a standard cloud to 
cloud communication. In fact I expressed this already in the first mail 
as reply to Wes.

The questions I see are:

- is IETF right place to standardize it

- if IETF does eventually publish something would that be accepted by 
community (in particular open source one)

Best,
R.
