RE: [Diffserv] QoSSIG BOF
Lixia,
thanks for your honest response, I think this is the right attitude what
we need for making QoS signaling happen.

I believe that and think the same would happen if all the "QoSsig" funs
started to melt their stuff for getting The ultimate QoS protocol.

But does it mean that IETF is not the right place for standardizing QoS
signaling for IP?

Many groups from my previous list started with a silent design period
and made a prototype for verification. I think it is time for synchronizing
theese works and check where are the limits of QoS signaling and what
is the cost of different functionality.
I may be super naive but still believe in that IETF can provide a forum for
discussing a common framework for QoS signaling in future internet and
reviewing the vigorous alternatives.
