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.
