With all respect to Dave, and not to sound too skeptical, but we're pretty far along in our current architecture to "fundamentally" change, don't you think (emphasis on fundamentally)?
Most of the routing and security issues on todays IP4/IP6 internet could be solved by deploying HIP or derivatives thereof without requiring fundamental changes to the infrastructure since the major "flaw" of current generation Internet is tying the network identity and host/application indentity into one which is then overcome with whole spectrum of solutions along the lines of anycast, load-balancers, NAT, etc. Pete

Dave Clark is proposing that the NSF should fund a new demonstration network that implements a fundamentally new architecture at many levels.
