About the same time the operators get back into the IETF and become involved again. There was a time when operators played a large role in the development of things BGP (e.g. Tony Bates, Enke Chen, both at iMCI). No one is stopping us, the 'ivory tower' has no gate. jy On 28/08/2010, at 5:13 AM, Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> wrote:

Just out of curiosity, at what point will we as operators rise up against the ivory tower protocol designers at the IETF and demand that they add a mechanism to not bring down the entire BGP session because of a single malformed attribute? Did I miss the memo about the meeting? I'll bring the punch and pie.
