Meeting straw poll
Towards the end of the meeting at the 51st IETF there was a straw poll held. I wanted to allow those not present to voice responses. First, I asked for a show of hands of implementors. Not that this is a decision point, if you are building an implementation and don't mind doing so, please mention this to the chairs - not that we are going to do anything with the data. (I suppose I should set forth a data collection policy ;) - the data is simply to give an indication of the number of efforts. We won't be reselling the contact information. ;)) Second, and this is a decision point. If members want to delay an answer until the minutes are available, this is understandable. 1) Are you "loyal" to EPP? 2) Are you "loyal" to XRP? 3) Do you want just one to be defined? IOW, you'll be dealing with so many folks, you can't afford to have two dissimilar systems. I don't want to know if EPP is better or worse than XRP. I just want to gauge what the group needs to settle upon. BTW, the largest bloc of hands was for #3 during the meeting. This poll is not intended to kill off ERP and/or XRP, but rather to determine if we need to hammer the two into one - as opposed to being parallel. And, one more time - if you were at the meeting, you've already been "counted." (Not that the IETF votes...) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Edward Lewis NAI Labs Phone: +1 443-259-2352 Email: lewis@tislabs.com You fly too often when ... the airport taxi is on speed-dial.
